Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I was wondering how is the selection made of what goes into the CDrom? Is the CVS repository used by most users or just a few? Personally I find that it would have been more useful to have the sources for all the programs somewhere (ie a second live file system CD) in an untar format. Alternatively a list of where the sources are in the first CD and a small script to get a program out would be just as good. For example recently I wanted to look at the source code for "renice". Getting the entire usr.bin took too much space.
