Maybe after another six months of use it won't matter to : me and I'll understand why its not a priority, but major stuff like the : kernel build changes ought to be a documentation update priority to : prevent the throngs from posting 10,000 messages asking "Why doesn't my : kernel/world build right?" But it has been documented in UPDATING for a long time. Months and months. It is likely a good idea to move some of the changes into the handbook. : Is UPDATING the primary source for late-breaking changes? Can I count : on that to keep me informed of changes? I try to keep up with the : mailing list but its not always possible for me to do so. Yes. Usually, but sometimes there's a lag of a few days while the world figures out that I need to update UPDATING.
