I suggest to make an official section on the www.freebsd.org web which will host these kind of articles. Sort of tied into the release system, so in addition to the usual "Release notes", "Errata", "Supported platforms" and other documents, each .0 version would have a "Highlights" section (one or, preferebly, more pages) with a high-level to mid-level description of the new (non arch-specific) features, presented as "selling points" for the whole RELENG branch. I know that there's a short paragraph or two about new features in the release notes currently, and I think this should stay, but I really think there's a need for longer articles hosted on the official (i.e. not on third-party) web site. If this passes in some form, I volunteer to write about the storage-oriented things such as gjournal, ZFS & similar. --------------enigBDC0857DAB0F8EC00CB19619 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.4 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGE9RgldnAQVacBcgRAh3TAKD+vM8oGw62hmvY/VMmAxiV02bkkQCdG2yt rVIzEIHd+obkRDKMIfehq3E= =ejh+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigBDC0857DAB0F8EC00CB19619--
