Wow. I've kicked this back and forth since I did the handbook changes. It was then I began thinking of how to deal with this. Admittedly so, I'll probably pull my hair out and scream if I need to look over each and every document in our tree and garbage collect 4.X stuff - updating and finishing parts as I can. In the case of PRs (both code and doc), the process is much more in depth. While I'd like to say "just close them and wait for another PR for 5/6/7" that is just bad handling. So my opinion is just coming up with some kind of .plan for dealing with them. It could as simple as play the normal reply asking about it, try to reproduce yourself, etc. Or you could go back and start by seeing if the files even exist, if the issue with a merged subsystem or a deprecated subsystem or code, and so on. Guess what I mean is, damn, that's a huge project. :( -- Tom Rhodes _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugbusters To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
