I didn't even know I *had* an account on freefall. Actually, the problem with this sort of stuff is that it needs to be tested before it gets slammed into the source tree. By tested, I mean on more than a few machines; it may work for me, but that means nothing. The last thing I need is for the townsfolk to come after me in the middle of the night with torches and pitchforks because FreeBSD will no longer boot on half the machines on the planet. I'd prefer it if someone passed this stuff around and tried it before committing it. Besides: I've never used CVS before and I'm deathly afraid I'll screw something up. :) -Bill ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~T~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -Bill Paul (212) 854-6020 | System Manager Work: wpaul@ctr.columbia.edu | Center for Telecommunications Research Home: wpaul@skynet.ctr.columbia.edu | Columbia University, New York City ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Møøse Illuminati: ignore it and be confused, or join it and be confusing! ~~~~~~~~ FreeBSD 2.1.0-Development #0: Fri Jan 13 22:04:07 EST 1995 ~~~~~~~~~
