I figured I could point out that I have docs/115000 open with some small changes (though it seems that some of them are outdated (6.3 is released, now), but the snapshot changes seem to still be valid (and the paren). I guess we can change the subject to be FreeBSD 6.x and 7.x, too :) Thanks, Ben Kaduk From simon at FreeBSD.org Sun Jun 1 11:57:31 2008 From: simon at FreeBSD.org (Simon L.

I will work on getting this fixed, but I don't have a date yet. Before people ask, no there currently isn't anything other people can do to fix this, but if you were thinking of helping, thanks anyway :-).

Hey, The FAQ is in sad state, so in generally I'm happy to see work on fixing that, but... Do note that the current FreeBSD wiki (wiki.freebsd.org) has limited access so only committers and known contributors have access to edit pages, and there are no current plans to change this policy - it's simply too much work to maintain with an more open policy. The alternative is of course to have some separate setup for the FAQ, but the bar for getting new official FreeBSD.org sites etc. is high mainly due to the extra administration required. E.g. the wiki ran several years unofficially before it got a real FreeBSD.org name. I don't want to discourage people coming up with new ideas - but do note that a lot of work and persistence will be required for getting things like this off the ground. -- Simon L.

Only contributors and committers can modify the wiki, which they can "Easily" do as well in the regular tree (ok there is a little higher burden there that only committers can access that part); but beyond that I think it's not a good idea to move documentation over to various points. We are strong in centralized documentation and writing, putting it on a wiki decentralizes that concept and could have impact on our overall appreciation of the documentation set (yes a FAQ is needed, no doubt about that but I personally enfavor the dcvs tree for it).

At the moment, I think you're right, but in the long-run, I think that an experiment may really help us. The information in the FAQ is years stale. My opinion has been for a while that that means we are not doing something right. Some of the "short-term" stuff is obviously out of place if it's not going to be updated. Is the right place the handbook? or some intro articles? or something users can also update? I don't know exactly, but IMHO it's worth trying something. mcl From bugmaster at FreeBSD.org Mon Jun 2 11:06:07 2008 From: bugmaster at FreeBSD.org (FreeBSD bugmaster) Date: Mon Jun 2 11:06:28 2008 Subject: Current unassigned doc problem reports Message-ID: <200806021106.m52B66JZ092269@freefall.freebsd.org> Current FreeBSD problem reports The following is a listing of current problems submitted by FreeBSD users. These represent problem reports covering all versions including\nexperimental development code and obsolete releases.\n Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The problem is understood and a solution is being sought. f - feedback Further work requires additional information from the originator or the community - possibly confirmation of the effectiveness of a proposed solution. p - patched A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or confirmation from originator) are still open. r - repocopy The resolution of the problem report is dependent on a repocopy operation within the CVS repository which is awaiting completion. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.

Of course, you can do a lot more with lukemftpd's ftpusers file, but not without breaking compatibility with ftpd.

This includes putting IPv6 addresses in /etc/exports for the -network flag. Also, any network address can now be followed by an optional /prefix instead of using -netmask. Thus, instead of: /foo -network 192.168.0.0 -netmask 255.255.255.0 you can now do: /foo -network 192.168.0.0/24 You can also do this now for IPv6: /foo -network 1:2:3:4::/64 The exports(5) manpage was never updated to document this however and I only found out when I went to look at the code. I'm actually using IPv6 and /prefix on a box running 6.3, but have verified that HEAD's exports(5) is still missing the data. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: From laoxue888888 at yahoo.cn Sun Jun 8 17:30:21 2008 From: laoxue888888 at yahoo.cn (Seven) Date: Sun Jun 8 18:03:02 2008 Subject: docs/124306: ftpusers man page says /etc/ftpusers is mandatory to enable ftp access, but it's not Message-ID: <128044.8482.qm@web92207.mail.cnh.yahoo.com> Seven ___________________________________________________________ ???????????? http://cn.mail.yahoo.com/ From david at catwhisker.org Mon Jun 9 03:30:03 2008 From: david at catwhisker.org (David Wolfskill) Date: Mon Jun 9 03:30:06 2008 Subject: docs/124406: New mailing list freebsd-wip-status Message-ID: <200806090324.m593OsDQ083742@bunrab.catwhisker.org> >Number: 124406 >Category: docs >Synopsis: New mailing list freebsd-wip-status >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-doc >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: change-request >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Mon Jun 09 03:30:02 UTC 2008 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: David Wolfskill >Release: FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE i386 >Organization: Wolfskill & Dowling Residence >Environment: System: FreeBSD g1-18.catwhisker.org 6.3-STABLE FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE #629: Fri Jun 6 05:03:26 PDT 2008 root@g1-18.catwhisker.org:/common/S1/obj/usr/src/sys/CANARY i386 >Description: New mailing list freebsd-wip-status created; this PR updates docs accordingly (well, mostly). >How-To-Repeat: Note discrepancy between mailing lists shown at (e.g.) vs. those shown at . >Fix: Below will likely need some vetting, redaction, and other editorial exercises. :-} Index: en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/eresources/chapter.sgml =================================================================== RCS file: /cvs/freebsd/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/eresources/chapter.sgml,v retrieving revision 1.184 diff -u -r1.184 chapter.sgml --- en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/eresources/chapter.sgml 28 May 2008 00:40:13 -0000 1.184 +++ en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/eresources/chapter.sgml 9 Jun 2008 03:16:05 -0000 @@ -576,6 +576,11 @@ + &a.wip-status.name; + FreeBSD Work-In-Progress Status + + + &a.www.name; Maintainers of www.FreeBSD.org @@ -1522,6 +1527,33 @@ + + &a.wip-status.name; + + + FreeBSD Work-In-Progress Status + + This mailing list can be used to announce creation + and progress of your FreeBSD related work.

These represent problem reports covering all versions including\nexperimental development code and obsolete releases.\n Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The problem is understood and a solution is being sought. f - feedback Further work requires additional information from the originator or the community - possibly confirmation of the effectiveness of a proposed solution. p - patched A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or confirmation from originator) are still open. r - repocopy The resolution of the problem report is dependent on a repocopy operation within the CVS repository which is awaiting completion. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.

These represent problem reports covering all versions including\nexperimental development code and obsolete releases.\n Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The problem is understood and a solution is being sought. f - feedback Further work requires additional information from the originator or the community - possibly confirmation of the effectiveness of a proposed solution. p - patched A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or confirmation from originator) are still open. r - repocopy The resolution of the problem report is dependent on a repocopy operation within the CVS repository which is awaiting completion. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.

XeLaTeX supports UTF-8 input of Greek text. With a proper fontset, that includes Greek characters, one can type directly into a XeLaTeX document text in Greek. Unfortunately, we don't have TeXlive in the ports, so that can't be used in the doc/ tree. Out other option is the {babel} package, but there's a catch there too. With the current teTeX ports, one can use the {babel} package like this: \documentclass[12pt]{article} \usepackage[english,greek]{babel} % Pull in both English and % Greek language support. \usepackage[iso-8859-7]{inputenc} % Allow ISO 8859-7 input of % Greek text. \begin{document} \section{????????} ?????? ???? ??? ????? ???? ???????? ??????? ????? ??? \selectlanguage{english} English text \selectlanguage{greek} ??? \LaTeX{}. \end{document} Roughly translated to English, the text above would read: \section{Introduction} Today I saw, for the first time, Greek text side by side with \selectlanguage{english} English text \selectlanguage{greek} in \LaTeX{}. The tricky part is that switching between languages for every English term has to be done with a filter. Otherwise, we will end up with the odd result of typesetting English text with Greek fonts. A good way to start making changes to support Greek would be to: * Make sure that jadetex adds the two preamble commands shown above: \usepackage[english,greek]{babel} \usepackage[iso-8859-7]{inputenc} * Find a way to 'filter' the text and replace non-command sequences of English text with `\selectlanguage{english} ... \selectlanguage{greek}'. We can probably keep the bloat to a semi-reasonable size by also making jadetex define short-hand aliases in the document preamble, like: \newcommand{GR}{\selectlanguage{greek}} \newcommand{EN}{\selectlanguage{english}} From keramida at freebsd.org Wed Jun 18 12:31:04 2008 From: keramida at freebsd.org (Giorgos Keramidas) Date: Wed Jun 18 12:31:09 2008 Subject: Language support in jadetex?

An alternative, would be to preprocess the ISO 8859-7 text at build time, replacing ISO 8859-7 Greek text with latin characters, and avoid using the {inputenc} package with the [iso-8859-7] option. This way, if we can find a way to filter text, replacing Greek like this: ???????? -> kalhm'era Then it may be easier to do the filtering, because it's far easier to detect ISO 8859-7 Greek bytes in a stream of text, instead of trying to understand what is English text vs. TeX command input. This may actually work better, now that I think a little more about it :) From Hywel at hmallett.co.uk Wed Jun 18 14:10:03 2008 From: Hywel at hmallett.co.uk (Hywel Mallett) Date: Wed Jun 18 14:10:09 2008 Subject: docs/124716: Geom RAID1 handbook example only covers boot partition Message-ID: <200806181405.m5IE55m4082782@www.freebsd.org> >Number: 124716 >Category: docs >Synopsis: Geom RAID1 handbook example only covers boot partition >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-doc >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: change-request >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Wed Jun 18 14:10:02 UTC 2008 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Hywel Mallett >Release: >Organization: >Environment: >Description: In the handbook the section on RAID0 is very clear, and gives a good example of how to configure a new RAID0 array and newfs it.

According to r1.403 " Stick the ifconfig(8)'s inet part at the end of each command line. The inet setting does an implicit "up" to the interface before setting the rest of parameters leading sometimes to issues. This is a bug, marking the interface up last is a workaround to that issue. This change nothing to the doc since the parameters order should not be important, but may reduce the problems for the readers using cut&paste.

Unfortunatly the wiki surge protection is rather broken in the setup used for wiki.FreeBSD.org and the recent upgrade broke the hack which disabled it for a day or so.

That is correct. NULL is syntactic sugar for 0 in c, a NULL pointer; i.e. a pointer pointing to NULL. However, NUL is the ASCII char nul, it is not NULL. > terminating > -.Dv NUL > +.Dv NULL NULL is not a character, NUL is. -- - db@FreeBSD.org db@db.net http://www.db.net/~db From danger at FreeBSD.org Mon Jun 23 08:19:06 2008 From: danger at FreeBSD.org (danger@FreeBSD.org) Date: Mon Jun 23 08:19:13 2008 Subject: docs/124894: Spelling mistake in strlen(3) Message-ID: <200806230819.m5N8J5PF031524@freefall.freebsd.org> Synopsis: Spelling mistake in strlen(3) State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: danger State-Changed-When: Mon Jun 23 08:18:35 UTC 2008 State-Changed-Why: Close this one as it's invalid.

These represent problem reports covering all versions including\nexperimental development code and obsolete releases.\n Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The problem is understood and a solution is being sought. f - feedback Further work requires additional information from the originator or the community - possibly confirmation of the effectiveness of a proposed solution. p - patched A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or confirmation from originator) are still open. r - repocopy The resolution of the problem report is dependent on a repocopy operation within the CVS repository which is awaiting completion. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.

My technical understanding is pretty limited, but I figured starting the page would be a good jumping-off point or anyone who wants to continue it. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ULE_scheduler I'd really like to see this page expanded, but don't have the technical understanding to do so myself (that's why I was looking it up ).

This difference was noticed recently while resolving a 'slow login' problem with sshd. Although I don't have a reference, I seem to recall having seen at least one claim that the hostname entry might be needed (in the loopback config) to circumvent ssh login delays. >How-To-Repeat: Compare localhost entries in /usr/share/examples/etc/hosts and default /etc/hosts with instructions in handbook 11.10.2.2. >Fix: Unknown. Expert input needed. If consensus deems that changes are needed, I'm happy to follow up with the requisite patches. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: From danger at FreeBSD.org Thu Jun 26 08:25:47 2008 From: danger at FreeBSD.org (danger@FreeBSD.org) Date: Thu Jun 26 08:26:34 2008 Subject: docs/122818: [patch] system.2 missing ".Sh RETURN VALUES" Message-ID: <200806260825.m5Q8PlR1018090@freefall.freebsd.org> Synopsis: [patch] system.2 missing ".Sh RETURN VALUES" Responsible-Changed-From-To: freebsd-doc->danger Responsible-Changed-By: danger Responsible-Changed-When: Thu Jun 26 08:25:22 UTC 2008 Responsible-Changed-Why: Take http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=122818 From danger at FreeBSD.org Thu Jun 26 08:33:09 2008 From: danger at FreeBSD.org (danger@FreeBSD.org) Date: Thu Jun 26 08:33:11 2008 Subject: docs/123579: readelf man page has duplicate -u option Message-ID: <200806260833.m5Q8X8cZ020336@freefall.freebsd.org> Synopsis: readelf man page has duplicate -u option State-Changed-From-To: open->closed State-Changed-By: danger State-Changed-When: Thu Jun 26 08:31:52 UTC 2008 State-Changed-Why: Close this one as it's a contributed software and this issue should be fixed upstream.

These represent problem reports covering all versions including\nexperimental development code and obsolete releases.\n Bugs can be in one of several states: o - open A problem report has been submitted, no sanity checking performed. a - analyzed The problem is understood and a solution is being sought. f - feedback Further work requires additional information from the originator or the community - possibly confirmation of the effectiveness of a proposed solution. p - patched A patch has been committed, but some issues (MFC and / or confirmation from originator) are still open. r - repocopy The resolution of the problem report is dependent on a repocopy operation within the CVS repository which is awaiting completion. s - suspended The problem is not being worked on, due to lack of information or resources. This is a prime candidate for somebody who is looking for a project to do. If the problem cannot be solved at all, it will be closed, rather than suspended. c - closed A problem report is closed when any changes have been integrated, documented, and tested -- or when fixing the problem is abandoned.
