We currently have a number of man pages in the system that specify ".Os NetBSD". We have been inconsistent in the past how we have imported these. Sometimes we leave the NetBSD attribution, sometimes we change it to FreeBSD, and sometimes we just change it to not specify an operating system (which pretty much amounts to the same thing as changing it to FreeBSD). -Mike -- Mike Pritchard mpp@FreeBSD.ORG or mpp@mpp.pro-ns.net To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
