I don't know what's necessary to finish this, but it's becoming more and more important. wilko, by the way, did a darn fine job in SGML-ifying his already-impressive HARDWARE.TXT file. > > Given that, I can probably crank out some sgml/html to glue things togethe > r. > > Related (somewhat) question: can we handle pictures?

We can do images in the DocBook documents...the FDP primer says how (SGML Markup->DocBook->Images). RELNOTESng right now doesn't use any images whatsoever, but I don't foresee this being a problem. > I'd love to see the html'ified HARDWARE.TXT on the web.

If you haven't seen it, it'll look something like this: http://people.freebsd.org/~bmah/relnotes/CURRENT/hardware-alpha.html Bruce. PS. As nik pointed out earlier, a lot of people on the -doc team (including myself) aren't all that familiar with the alpha. Concrete suggestions for fixing up the hardware list gratefully accepted (especially for devices that are only supported on the i386 but somehow showed up in the alpha document build). --==_Exmh_-1615275638P Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (FreeBSD) Comment: Exmh version 2.3.1+ 05/14/2001 iD8DBQE7J5U52MoxcVugUsMRAu3sAJ0QGQwEoPebpcu82xShP7bly1KTTwCfYfjv ++Yv2WtnGyDDg2OK/6rAmZI= =ryyw -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==_Exmh_-1615275638P-- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-alpha" in the body of the message
