There should be a FAQ about this. I'm starting to think we'll need a "FreeBSD Jargon" section of the FAQ soon. We'd only really have four things to put it in for now though (MFC, repo-copy, bike shed, fairings) so I don't think it's worth it yet. OTOH, the kernel config part only has four questions, so perhaps we could. > + "What is it about this bike shed ?" Some of you have I'd use “...” instead of "..." [I think that's right, it's either &[lr]dquo; or , not ".." anyway. I think the last agreement was &[lr]dquo;.] > + paying attention, that he is *here*. Perhaps foo instead of *foo*, or something. The FAQ isn't limited to ASCII text like email is. :-) Other than that, this should probably go in the FAQ soon. I'll fix those minor things and maybe commit it soonish. /me adds it to TODO list. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@FreeBSD.org / PGP: 0x99392F7D FreeBSD Documentation Project / To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
