I think you make a good > point here, and it look like Jordan is interested in making this happen. It seems like the installation scripts could do more to throw errata into the face of the user a la the win95 splash screens. . . Copying Xfree86-3.14159 to your hard disk. . . Now's a great time to read the errata at http://blahblahblah if you have a web browser handy, because we're not afraid to admit we're not perfect. For example, if the user actually configures the network at installation time, wouldn't it be cool to have offer to point a web browser at the latest errata? -castor To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
