I'm still thinking about how to document this stuff. I'd like to write a man page which defines and describes our SDT probes and provides examples. A wiki would be a good place for examples, but I'd rather not document stuff there as it'll eventually fall out of sync with what the code does. > > The wiki might also be a good place to give the community a high-level > view and checklist for what we have and what needs to be done, improved > upon or tested. Yep, it'd be good to have somewhere to document outstanding DTrace work, missing features, bugs and so on. I'll document all of the problems and shortcomings that I'm aware of, and add a wiki page for them (or append to an existing page). > > A great outcome would be helping you to scale ongoing development for > DTrace on FreeBSD, and getting the eyes on it that we need to make it > more useful over time. > > Thanks again for all your effort :) > > koobs >
