I've come into FreeBSD after 2+ years tracking NetBSD. I'm still a bit confused about some procedures. NetBSD has a summary of CVS changes and a rolling README of current state changes similar to RLOG lines from RCS. Does FreeBSD have this kind of summary of changes under CVS? The individual CVS update reports are vital for some people, but for passive drones like me, less useful than something like a ChangeLog which is append-grown. The re-sync to current process is not clear. NetBSD ususally had an indication from known people when re-sync was vital, and irregular checkpoint tarsets existed for people who were nervous of the in-place libc.so upgrade etc etc. -George -- George Michaelson | connect.com.au pty/ltd Email: ggm@connect.com.au | c/o AAPT, Phone: +61 7 3834 9976 | level 8, the Riverside Centre, Fax: +61 7 3834 9908 | 123 Eagle St, Brisbane QLD 4000
