Hubbard" Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hmmmm. This is giving me the feeling that it's something which probably just needs to go back out again. Many people have asked me why such a comparatively large change occurred in a branch which has already been scheduled for maintenance only and end-of-lifed, and I haven't had a good answer for them yet. The "well, didn't seem like it hurt much" argument is about the best one I've come up with and it's kinda weak. I'd be a lot more comfortable if vinum just disappeared again entirely from 2.2, thanks. There's nothing that says you can't provide a patch file somewhere for those 2.2.x folks who really want such a new feature. - Jordan > On Tuesday, 2 February 1999 at 0:14:54 -0800, Chris Knight wrote: > > I noticed that vinum was introduced into 2.2.8 within the past week or so, > > but it isn't compiled in a 'make world', and it doesn't compile directly. > > Is is safe to assume that this made in into 2.2-stable by accident? > > Well, not completely.
