This means no new features should be merged in to the -stable branch without clearance from Jordan first. Because the doc/ tree is not branched for releases this will not affect us too much. In particular, I'm happy for changes to the content of the documentation under doc/ to carry on as normal. However, part of the FreeBSD release process includes making the documentation, which means that "make release" is dependent on our make(1) infrastructure working properly. I believe it's working properly at the moment. If it breaks between now and the 15th I'll have Jordan shouting at me, so, if you have changes to the Makefiles or *.mk files, please can you funnel them through me for review first (e.g., Neil's splitting up of docprog.docbook.mk, which I'm examining now). Thanks, N -- [intentional self-reference] can be easily accommodated using a blessed, non-self-referential dummy head-node whose own object destructor severs the links. -- Tom Christiansen in <375143b5@cs.colorado.edu> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
