I believe I've succeeded in doing that. At the time I asked questions in "questions" and was advised to subscribe to the "docs" list to "learn the ropes".

Unfortunately I'm one of the poor mugs on two different management committees, which means I get to do twice as much "fixing up someone else's stuffups" as 90% of the others To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
