Dear Jonathan, This text actually belongs in the glossary part of the Handbook. People generally tend to print out the Handbook so by putting it there, it results into better documentation. Cheers. Hiten Pandya hmp at freebsd.org I can't seem to find the glossary part of the handbook (there doesn't app= ear to be a glossary at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/ and grepping for glossary in the doc source didn't turn up much). Can you point me to whe= re it is defined?

It is not build by default (yet) since there hasn't been that much
content in it (though that should probably be reconsidered soon).
Anyway, it's located in:
doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/share/sgml/glossary/freebsd-glossary.sgml

I do apologise. The glossary is actually part of the Architecture Handbook. In that case, it might be just OK to add it to the FAQ right now, and once a Glossary chapter is written for the Handbook it can be included in there.

It's true that we may want to add LOR to a glossary at some point, but as proved by the mailing list thread from which this submission was taken, this is in fact a frequently asked question. This is very appropriate for the troubleshooting section of the FAQ as is. Thanks for the submission! It will appear on the website within 24 hours. |
