My proposal: - put everything you want into the list - conflicting entries have to reside near each other in a conflicting entries section - if someone doesn't like an entry he can add an conflicting entry - if someone wants to implement an entry in the conflicting entries section he should first talk about it on freebsd-arch (or with an upcoming technical review board), the outcome of the discussion should be documented in the task list (e.g. in a rejected entries section) Bye, Alexander. -- I believe the technical term is "Oops!" http://www.Leidinger.net Alexander @ Leidinger.net GPG fingerprint = C518 BC70 E67F 143F BE91 3365 79E2 9C60 B006 3FE7 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
