Hi Jordan, > First off, the doc team's mailing addresses.

I checked out the home page the other day and saw that www.au.freebsd.org was actually mirroring the XFree86 home page. :-( > News Editors John C & Nate J: > > Just reading through http://www.freebsd.org once will probably > generate enough work to keep you busy for a week.

You're right about the CVS-Naivete <grin> but I will start taking a look at the web pages. -- John Cavanaugh "There can be only one." <john@bang.rain.com>
