The FreeBSD article 'problem-reports' says that there exists two methods to submit a followup: either use the followup link on the individual PR's web page, or just mail it to <bug-followup@FreeBSD.org>. I think the incoherence come from the fact that the @email found on the individual PR's web page actually is <freebsd-gnats-submit@FreeBSD.org> which is different than <bug-followup@FreeBSD.org>. Fix: Because i don't which email recipient is the good one (better one?), i don't know which of the two parts must be adjusted: the bottom part of individual PRs, or the problem-reports article. How-To-Repeat: Compare the information found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/problem-reports/pr-followup.html and the link provided at the foot of the page at, for example: http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/58154

The bug-followup address is an alias for freebsd-gnats-submit. It doesn't really matter which one you use. > Compare the information found at: > http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/problem-reports/pr-followup.html > and the link provided at the foot of the page at, for example: > http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=kern/58154 > Because i don't which email recipient is the good one (better one?), i don't > know which of the two parts must be adjusted: the bottom part of individual > PRs, or the problem-reports article. I prefer the first one, since bug-followup@ is more friendly to us human earthlings than some obscure gnats-dependent alias. The bug-followup address is easier to remember, because it matches the functionality of the alias (followup/reply to a bug report).

Ok, thank you for this subtlety :) >> Because i don't which email recipient is the good one (better one?), i >> don't know which of the two parts must be adjusted: the bottom part of >> individual PRs, or the problem-reports article. > I prefer the first one, since bug-followup@ is more friendly to us human > earthlings than some obscure gnats-dependent alias.

So in this case, maybe that the very little attached patch will be enough to adjusts this point. Thanks. -- -jpeg.
State Changed From-To: open->closed Should be fixed now. I changed the address that is displayed at the web output of query-pr.cgi to bug-followup@FreeBSD.org The change may take a while to become visible (the next web site build should be in a few hours).
Responsible Changed From-To: freebsd-doc->keramida
