Who already knows about it? Could we just dub Hiten, as the last person who worked with it, the current author and maintainer of this document? It would be good, in my opinion of course, for users to have an idea of who to contact if in fact this document needs changing. Many times we get prs saying ``this needs changed'' and yet it either sits for many days/weeks until someone has the time to investigate the problem, or knowledge to apply a quick fix? In closing, I guess that this is just a request to assign Hiten as the author of this document, and maybe even list an (unknown origin) under the authors section. Is this idea feasable? -- Tom (Darklogik) Rhodes To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
