Original poster & respondents abused stable@ & questions@ Cross posting 2 lists un-necessarily, despite: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/eresources.html#ERESOURCES-MAIL "C.1.3 List Charters Rules of the road: No posting should be made to more than 2 mailing lists, and only to 2 when a clear and obvious need ..." There was a desire, as always, but no need. (so I removed cc: stable@ on this post, to avoid this post also breaking that rule, (on the basis that stable@ readership are more likely to already know about Not cross posting, & using the Right list, as questions@ started as a target list to point clueless new users to, from /etc/motd. (It was expected as users grew experienced, they'd subscribe other lists themed to their interests.))) Noise was emitted to lists with wrong remits. advocacy@freebsd.org exists for promo. talk inc. re. wiki. Please read list remits, & conform to them, & subscribe appropriate lists. http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-advocacy "Furthering the Use of FreeBSD Share ideas and plan to increase the number of companies and individuals using FreeBSD" http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable "This is the mailing list for users of freebsd-stable. the stable cvsup target is built from the latest official RELEASE with the addition of critical bug fixes." http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions "This is the mailing list for questions about FreeBSD. You should not send "how to" questions to the technical lists unless you consider the question to be pretty technical."
