To: doc@FreeBSD.org Reply-To: chris@calldei.com Message-id: <20010113160051.B4539@holly.calldei.com> MIME-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii User-Agent: Mutt/0.96.4i Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org As I worked on the mailing-lists.ent move, a thought occured to me--how far should I go? There are other language-specific general entities that are mostly lumped into the Handbook. There are language-specific authors.ent files to overload the stock authors.ent from the Handbook, there's newsgroups.ent files, and of course mailing-lists.ent. I propose the following reorganization: doc/ share/ sgml/ authors.ent - English author names freebsd.ent - Defines &rel.current at this point in the concept newsgroups.ent - Defines the one FreeBSD newsgroup[1] ... en_US.ISO_8859-1/ share/ sgml/ mailing-lists.ent - English mailing lists ... ... ja_JP.eucJP/ share/ sgml/ authors.ent - Overloads English names with eucJP encoded names for Japanese committers. newsgroups.ent - Includes Japanese FreeBSD newsgroups, if any. ... Any comments? This will certainly lower the size of the checked-out repository, and make it a good deal easier to work with. 1: Currently the words "the" and "newsgroup" surround this tag in various languages, and that's the only difference in the different versions of the file. I propose that "the" and "newsgroup" move to the actual document, and the newsgroups.ent file go to doc/share/sgml/ -- +-------------------+---------------------------------------------+ | Chris Costello | It's 10 o'clock. | | chris@calldei.com | Do you know where your child processes are? | +-------------------+---------------------------------------------+ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
