Description Murray Stokely freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2002-04-04 08:00:02 UTC 
The FreeBSD Handbook contains a big XXX for the Vinum section.  For
many years our X11 section was the same way, until Greg Lehey donated
some excellent X11R6 content.  Perhaps he can do the same for the
Vinum chapter, since he wrote the software?

Fix: 

Beg Greg Lehey to donate some of material for this section.  He is an
excellent author and knows vinum better than anyone.

I had a little discussion with Greg, and I am working on this.  Please
watch http://storm.uk.FreeBSD.org/~hiten/vinum for the doc in a week's
time or so.

Hey Hiten,

  Any progress on your Vinum document?  Are you still working with
Greg on this?

Hi.

I have done many bits of the processing, using the groff2db script;
unfortunately, the script produces a lot of "uncompilable" SGML code,
which I am fixing.

I will put patch for it online soon.  I apologise for the lateness, but
rest assured, I am still working on it.

It should be done in about a week or two's time, now that I have "real"
summer holidays, so I can work more on it.

Thanks. 
Regards.
