Hi Alfred, You are so right to ask for feedback. On the other hand, there are reasons that can make you trust in me. As you see, I'm a member of EnderUNIX Software Development Team that is the first open source group of Turkey, and established BSDCONTR (Kris Kenneway @ FreeBSD, Marc Balmer @ OpenBSD, and Pawel Jakup Dawidek @ FreeBSD has attendant to this conference. Moreover, you can ask me to Robert Watson @ FreeBSD).

I found it very useful in my work, so I think it should be shared with the members of the FreeBSD Documentation Project. I did not see anything like this in the repositories, but you can throw me rocks if somebody has already done this before :) I generalized and prepared it a bit and it should work for any language in the doc/www tree. The format of the output is tuned to be comfortable for generating commit messages, however this feature should be enhanced in the future. It contains a few "awk(1)ward" tricks, so your suggestions and comments are more then welcome.

Turned out to be much easier than I thought it would be, except for I couldn't get gvinum to start at boot time. Manually it started flawlessly. After more searching than I'm used to with FreeBSD, I found the the loader.conf knob. The reason for the PR is that the critical bit for boot time starting of gvinum is only listed in the handbook in chapter "20.9 Using Vinum for the Root Filesystem", a chapter I thought I had no need to read since I wasn't dealing with the root filesystem. Chapter 20.8, which was the one I was looking at, does have a section on automatic startup, but only refers to the old vinum rc.conf setting. >How-To-Repeat: Ignore the handbook chapter on vinum root filesystems when not dealing with root filesystems. >Fix: At a minimum the 20.9.1 paragraphs on gvinum startup need to be copied to 20.8.1.1. There is probably some more work that could be done to segregate what is 4.x vinum and 5+ gvinum, but the above seems the most important "fix". >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: From jvk-list at thekrafts.org Mon May 5 05:05:03 2008 From: jvk-list at thekrafts.org (Joe Kraft) Date: Mon May 5 05:05:07 2008 Subject: WYSIWYG editor for DocBook? Message-ID: I'm looking to break into the documentation writing/maintaining area and have been looking through the recommended tools to do that. I figure the best way to break into it is to start writing some stuff for myself to document how I maintain my system and such. I'd like to do it in the same style as the FreeBSD documentation to build up my comfort levels before working with the real docs. On the topic of editors, I'm wondering if there is a good editor that will show a final-ish product based on the tags. Perferably one that would allow me to look at the tags directly also, but basically something that I could just select the style I want it to come out in. Way back when I was writing HTML, I used an editor called HotDog which had similar features and I kind of liked that way of working. Any thoughts, recommendations? Joe.

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.

I've never used a WYSIWYG editor for DocBook, but I have found psgml with emacs to be an enormous timesaver. Even if all you ever use is its keyboard shortcut to close the current tag you'll save an enormous amount of typing. It also fully understands the DTD so will only allow elements or attributes that make sense in the current part of the document. There are some commercial editors for XML that might be worth investigating. - Murray From pgj at FreeBSD.org Mon May 5 18:00:02 2008 From: pgj at FreeBSD.org (Gabor PALI) Date: Mon May 5 18:00:08 2008 Subject: docs/123421: [patch] Fix lpr(1) Error Messages in Handbook Chapter 9 Message-ID: <481f4926.06e2660a.0e45.ffff975d@mx.google.com> >Number: 123421 >Category: docs >Synopsis: [patch] Fix lpr(1) Error Messages in Handbook Chapter 9 >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-doc >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: doc-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Mon May 05 18:00:01 UTC 2008 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: Gabor PALI >Release: FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE i386 >Organization: >Environment: System: FreeBSD disznohal 6.3-STABLE FreeBSD 6.3-STABLE #4: Fri Apr 4 23:29:43 CEST 2008 dezzy@disznohal:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC_ i386 >Description: I found a small inconsistency in the use markups of lpr(1) error messages in the FreeBSD Handbook, Chapter 9 (``Printing'').

But I understand that's not exactly what you meant. When I worked with DocBook, it was pretty easy to set up a tool chain that quickly built output in various formats (HTML, RTF, etc.) so I could easily look at the results. And if I had bothered to used 'make' it probably would have been even easier (but that assumes you already have some comfort with 'make'). Not quite the real-time display implied by "WYSIWYG", but I found it entirely adequate. It helps to use an editor that understands DocBook and won't let you do anything not legal (and even better, offers a list of legal choices when asked). I mostly used KATE (in KDE), but it doesn't do much -- you can do better. Also be aware of whether any tools you are considering are designed for SGML DocBook, or XML DocBook. - Bob From gabor at FreeBSD.org Mon May 5 22:47:31 2008 From: gabor at FreeBSD.org

Thank you for your time in reading this e-mail. GSM-64 GSM Access Control system- This system will react to a phone call from a landline or mobile and open gates, barriers, doors, shutters, garage doors and road blocks. There is never a call cost in calling the unit as the call is disconnected without being answered. Security is in the fact that someone calling the unit has to know the mobile (cell) number of the SIM card with it and can also be backed up by Caller ID. The unit has a memory of 64 numbers and will only respond to a caller it knows the phone number of who is calling it. The unit can open: Gates Barriers Access doors Shutter doors Garage doors Ram barriers and road blockers and is ideal for use on : Residential properties. Gated communities. Small businesses with gates or access barriers and main entrance doors. Large business with road blocks, access doors and main entrances. More information & ordering this product can be found at http://www.gsm-secure.co.uk/gsm_opener.htm GSM Intercom system- This system enables a household or business to install an Intercom at their gates that can call mobile or landlines to announce the presence of a visitor. No more missed visitors waiting at gates only find no one is home or on the premises. This reduces the risks of a burglary due to the visitor never knowing if the owner is home or not. They will assume that the Intercom has been answered that there is someone home. When a call is received, the visitor can speak directly to the owner who then can make a decision whether or not to open the gates, door or barrier. Not only is it an Intercom, is has two other great features too: 1000 user Caller ID access control. Working in the same way as the GSM-64 mentioned earlier, the unit can store up to 1000 numbers. When a caller phones the unit and the number is recognised, the relay is triggered. Any unknown callers are disconnected and ignored. 2 input alarm or notification system. Connect these inputs to a sensor or monitoring system and the owner can be notified of events happening on site such as gates being forced or the property has unwelcome visitors. Alarms are sent as text or voice to nominated numbers. More information on this product can be found at http://www.gsm-secure.co.uk/gsm_intercom.htm Other products we have include, boat alarms, caravan alarms and house alarms that use wireless sensors as well as wired inputs for monitoring and the facility to switch on equipment such as heating, cooling, Jacuzzis and hot-tubs remotely using a quick call from a mobile phone. Alarms are reported by text message and then a phone call along with facilities to listen in to he premises to identify false alarm or an intruder.

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.

Message-ID: Dear FreeBSD documentation maintainer, I maintain an open source CUPS queue management tool called PrinterSetup. Details are available from the following URL : http://www.lucidsystems.org/printingworks/printersetup I am quite sure that PrinterSetup will work under FreeBSD. Although, to my knowledge it is has not been tested on FreeBSD. If anyone is managing many CUPS queues or many printers then PrinterSetup is a useful utility. The purpose of this email is to bring this tool to your attention. With the hope that if you also believe it would be useful for other system administrators that you may add some information to the BSD online documentation about it's existence. I believe that this would result in less people have to go though CUPS queue management hell which I personally experienced was before creating PrinterSetup. PrinterSetup is not currently part of any package management system. You just download it. The download is the source code. If it turns out that PrinterSetup is useful for people using FreeBSD. Then I would be happy to arrange to have a link established on the PrinterSetup web page which links to the FreeBSD home page, hopefully with the great FreeBSD logo. Why you may ask. The answer is simple, FreeBSD absolutely rocks and more people should try it out! Finally, the FreeBSD documentation is a fantastic resource. Thank you very much for maintaining this great freely accessible information. Your work is certainly appreciated. Keep in touch.

The .key files and the SGML entities associated to them are already there, but they are not referenced in the SGML sources.

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.

In this case, the instructions are correct: /mnt/etc/fstab will become /etc/fstab when you effectively boot from the second disk.

The doc packages are no longer available because the past discussion reached a consensus that generating them is a bit tricky and most of people do not need such packages because the latest documentation is always available on the web. It does not mean maintaining them is absolutely harmful for something, though. I think removing a part mentioning the documentation package would be fine for the moment. -- | Hiroki SATO -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

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.

During the course of this work, we noticed there is a lot of outdated technical info, that only applies to older outdated versions of FreeBSD and possibly obsolete hardware. Mark Linimon suggested to me there was a plan to move at least the technical info of the FAQ into a form that could be more easily updated, such as a wiki. Apparently these plans did not go forward due to lack of time. Gabor Kovesdan noted that a wiki is better as a developer scratchpad rather than real documentation and expressed the (valid) concern that a wiki cannot be distributed (for example on CD) like the current SGML based FAQ. Some ideas / proposals related to the above: - Create a wiki style FAQ (while still maintaining the current version of the FAQ) with a possible future plan to limit the original SGML FAQ to questions related to the way the Project works, rather than technical stuff. - Maintain the current FAQ as is, and also create a wiki that will serve for the most up-to-date technical questions. Periodically, these could also be used to update the SGML version of the FAQ, or (if possible) the wiki could be converted in a way to static content so it becomes re-distributable. We believe experimenting with a wiki style FAQ (regardless of what is decided about the SGML FAQ) is a good idea, since more people will be able to get involved and the information will be much more current and useful. We also realize there maybe several drawbacks to it: 1) Not really distributable (as mentioned above) 2) Good administration will be needed so the organization of categories and content does not become 'chaotic' In the light of the above, we would like to hear the community's and the committers' ideas and proposals on the above plans.

I agree that the current FAQ in SGML includes too much stale information and maintaining it is hard, and we definitely need a way to improve it. My thought is the following: - As you pointed out maintaining wiki as a good shape is time consuming than many expected. Using wiki as a working place is not bad, but I am not for using it as the primary place which holds the FAQ. - For making maintenance of the current FAQ easier, the following would be effective I think: a) Separate the current SGML source file into small SGML/XML files based on category. Also, we may need to add more "category tag" (something used in a blog entry, for example) to categorize each item flexibly. b) Add "age after the last review" for each item to make it possible to review too old information later. Periodic review should be scheduled in a way like "all items have to be younger than 1 year old". SGML/XML framework can handle this sort of information processing easily. c) Add a capability of keeping view count of each item if possible. We need to know which item is most frequently referred. Do you have more specific idea for using wiki for drafting work of FAQ entries? I think there is no problem if we maintain the static content and the wiki can encourage people to update. -- | Hiroki SATO -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

More people could contribute in the current branch, and then the maintainer(s) could move what would be considered more valuable content to the 'stable' branch. This would also mean there is enough quality control and the whole thing does not become disorganized. I don't have any specific technical solution in mind for transferring content from the wiki to the sgml FAQ. I suppose we could have some maintainers that would periodically check what changed in the 'stable' version and update the static FAQ. Decision of what should go in the static FAQ could be based on several factors. If you ask me, I would consider best to not include very fast changing information in the static FAQ. I would, for example, leave the entries that deal with very specific hardware troubleshooting (i.e. machine foo will not load FreeBSD 6.X) to the wiki, as these get outdated fast as hardware becomes obsolete.

The 'stable' branch will have more or less established categories and entries (which will be updated regularly) and when new stuff from current gets reviewed and considered important, it should be added to stable. The idea here is that current will be more or less open to contributions from everyone. Seasoned maintainers will be able to change articles in stable directly. We will not have an MFC for everything. This would really slow it down. Of course, it still is a lot of work. > The second one is that which do we publish as one the average user > should read.

The idea here is the sgml FAQ is used for distribution as an offline document (CDs printouts etc) and the rest should be referred to the online FAQ. There will be some duplication in the FAQ and the wiki, but the user should be encouraged to use the wiki unless there is no option (e.g. no network). As I see it we would have: - SGML FAQ: Distributed on CDs. Printing possible. Project info and some technical info. Intended mostly for offline use - Wiki 'stable': Intended for most people. Answering a broad range of technical questions and also linking to other documentation - Wiki 'current': For people willing to contribute new entries and also for searching up to the minute stuff where 'stable' is not there yet.

This was my idea also the last time I looked at it (sigh) which appears to have been several years ago :-( Here is the prototype that I drew up by hacking out what I felt were the "changeable" (and/or stale!) technical things: http://people.freebsd.org/~linimon/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/ which you can compare to the latest snapshot: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/ For the side-by-side, look at: http://people.freebsd.org/~linimon/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/book.html vs. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/book.html The former is 48 screenfuls on this laptop; the latter is 212. Also note that 6 screenfuls are bibilography. That should be separate no matter what else is done. (It could probably just stay in SGML.) Even out of those 42, there is _still_ probably stuff that could move to the Handbook; it was meant as a working copy, before I task-switched to portmgr things and never task-switched back.. Finally, as to the argument about not having the technical bits on disk, I agree with that to some degree, but if the technical bits are years obsolete it hardly matters*. To the extent that the bits should ship with each copy of FreeBSD, I think you can make the argument that a) if they are "what is the xyz subsystem", it ought to be moved to the Handbook; if it's b) "how to get xyz to work", it ought to be moved to a separate article. This would leave the wiki (or CMS, or whatever) for questions that come and go with various releases. mcl * example: "For FreeBSD 5.X and later you will need a 486 or better PC, with 24 MB or more of RAM and at least 150 MB of hard disk space."

It is also a good idea. Feedback is always important, especially for a FAQ. Do you have any suggestions on how to implement this? I believe this can be only done on the web. Are you planning to introduce limits based on this frequency value or is it only about statistics?

Yes, 'current' line could be used as a scratchpad (wishlist etc.) for anybody and as a source of inspiration for the editors, writers. It is the another end of the frequency question ("what to talk about"). -pgj@ From sonicy at otenet.gr Wed May 28 05:44:39 2008 From: sonicy at otenet.gr (Manolis Kiagias) Date: Wed May 28 05:44:43 2008 Subject: Downloading packages In-Reply-To: <483CE73C.6080502@gmail.com> References: <483CE73C.6080502@gmail.com> Message-ID: <483CF195.6030506@otenet.gr> Oren Almog wrote: > I've been looking at > http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/packages-using.html > and it is stated there and given as an example that if you want to > change the default download site of packages for your version, you > need to change the PACKAGESITE variable to > ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-5.4-release/Latest/ > (5.4 is given as an example).

The /Latest directory simply contains links to the latest versions of the packages in the /All directory. In this way you don't need to know and specify the exact version of the package you want to install. For example, with PACKAGESITE set to /Latest, you could do something like: pkg_add -r xorg and you would get the latest version of Xorg server. With PACKAGESITE set to All, you should do something like: pkg_add -r xorg-7.3_1 but you would need to look the exact package name beforehand (e.g. by using Firefox or an ftp program to visit the ftp site). Please note these type of questions are better answered in the freebsd-questions list, which is the primary technical support list. You may wish to use it for any further queries.

And I think we (or just I?) brought the idea up with Murray. It never got off the ground sadly - as have other efforts (see archives for my FAQ->Handbook patch) and just a couple of weeks ago I was thinking of that FAQOMATIC.
