As some of you will know, I've been promising for a while now to start addi=
ng
indexterm elements to the FAQ.
Since this is major job, I'd like to ask you all if the attached patch sucks
or not (and whether it blows too).
What I'm thinking, rightly or wrongly is that this will produce an index li=
ke
books have, but I don't know if that's true or not.
If it is, then this patch will produce stuff like :
FreeBSD,
name
overview
project goals
license,
BSD
version,
current
latest
release frequency
stable
So what I'm asking is whether these are the kind of terms I should be using
within the indexterm elements, or whether I should be looser or stricter wi=
th
what I put in there.
Thanks,
Ceri
