I'll define a hats.ent file in the internal/ area. This is where we put authortive groups, with their memebers, and their @FreeBSD.org email address. This will in fact create the list we need, without adding @FreeBSD.org to all the current entities in developers.sgml. We then include the entities from this file in places where we need to list hats, for example releng/ could have: re-main re-ia64 and those entities will list the current members of their party. Then, when hats change, this file only is updated, and *bang* next rebuild of the site all hats are updated. The only real question I have is: Should this entity only list the hat owners? Or have the html code (docbook code in the doc/ tree) to create a table'ed like listing? -- Tom Rhodes To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
