I can see most people >simply unsubscribing from -current in the face of a mail that long and >tedious IMHO, it's not such a bad idea. freebsd-current _is_ the place to report problems with -current, why can't the report be produced by a daemon? All the MUA's I've ever used allowed me to delete a mail before reading all of it, so I don't see that having detailed information (at the end) is a real issue (though it might be for someove paying by the byte). Comments: - I hope it has a well-defined subject so it can be easily recognized. - I presume it's built using the default make.conf. - It would be nice if it reported changes since the previous day (or successful build). This would make it easier to see what has been broken recently. Peter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
