This isn't a FreeBSD manual page, so I don't think there's much we can do about it. You'd probably be better off reporting the problem to the XFree86 Project. I'll close this PR soon unless anyone objects. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@FreeBSD.org / PGP: 0x99392F7D On 11 Nov, Ben Smithurst wrote:

I think I'll object.
I'm just wondering, isn't there a way to passing this bug
directly to the XFree86 group?
This bug/mis-spelling is just something that needs to be
corrected. It's minor; we can both agree on that, but
passing the buck puts in the same boat as some poor
commercial software (M$).
This leads me to ask should we really pass the buck, or
should we as the best OS on the internet, perhaps, find
a way to improve on the system and get this resolved?
After all, this seems to be a most trival case.
best regards,
jessem.
State Changed From-To: open->closed Bugs in XFree86 can be reported to XFree86@XFree86.org as stated in Question A.17 in the XFree86 FAQ. XFree86 is not part of the FreeBSD base tree, so future PRs should also be addressed as "ports" and not "docs" bugs. |
