I don't know about the "wish" category, but: Perhaps, at least as a short term solution, changing the section title for Section 8.3 ("Securing FreeBSD") to "Securing FreeBSD: SSH and Other Tools" or something like that would do the trick. That way, someone looking through the TOC for information on SSH would be able to find it. I went ahead and submitted the above suggestion (the title change for section 8.3) as a PR, although not in the "wish" class. If you also want me to suggest a re-write to split SSH out into its own section, I'll be glad to submit that as a sort of beta test of the "wish" class... By the way, I'm traveling and don't have the complete text of my original posting with me. I hope my PR adequately addressed my original complaint ;) I didn't know about the "wish" category before, but now that I look at the PR page (at 900 bps :( ) I see that it is not a "category", but instead is a "class". I can't report it simultaneously as a "doc-bug" and a "wish", which how I would categorize it. It seems to me (after admittedly brief thought) that "wish" ought to be a category rather than a class. -- Bob To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
