I'm responsible of this situation, mainly cause of the lack of details in my commit log. If one wants to blame me, I'm fine with it cause I committed maybe too quickly. On another hand, if I have to do it again, I'd do it in the same manner cause the situation requested a fast response. About one week ago or more, Robert pinged doceng requesting this addition, one person approved the idea and then Robert asked for help to commit. This Saturday, I read the mentioned discussion and I had 3 possibilities: - ignoring the discussion; - asking Robert to go on www/doc@ and redo his request etc. (which is quite the same as the previous point); - committing quickly the change. So according to the Foundation situation, to the discussion with Robert, to the fact a new thread on www/doc@ would need another week to reach the same solution, I committed the change. I really think everyone would do the same, but once again I apologize for my too short and misleading commit log. -- Marc _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/cvs-all To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
