  FreeBSD doc repository

  Modified files:
    en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/5-roadmap article.sgml
  Log:
  Avoid using "It was", but use a more explicit reference to the
  version-guide article in the abstract of 5-roadmap.  This way
  the text is a bit less confusing.
Shouldn't this be nuked? I remember it came to the topic some time ago,
but we won't have
any new releases from 5.X any more and it has only a historical
significance.
When you go on and keep reading, and follow the links you feel the 5.x
task isn't completed yet, and I feel it's misleading, I would suggest
you make docs for FreeBSD 7.x Road Map or even 8.x
That's odd.  After reading this in the current abstract:

      <para> This document is now mostly of historical value.  It
        presented a roadmap for the development of &os;'s &t.releng.5;
        branch.  It was originally written in February 2003 (between
        the 5.0 and 5.1 releases), and was intended to provide a plan
        for making the &t.releng.5; branch <quote>stable</quote>, both
        in terms of code quality and finalization of various
        APIs/ABIs.  For a different perspective, the article
        <ulink url="&url.articles.version-guide;">
          <quote>Choosing the &os; Version That Is Right For You</quote>
        </ulink>
        may be of interest.  The version-guide article was written in August
        2005 (two and a half years later), and it contains a section
        discussing how these plans and events actually unfolded, as well as
        some lessons learned.</para>

it was obvious to me that the article is *not* describing the current
state of affairs.  Any suggestions about improving the text to make it
less confusing for people who just happen to stumble upon it now, are
very welcome :)

I think if you change the title itself it will be good idea.

The Road Map for 5-STABLE to The Road Map for 5-STABLE ( historical value )


AS the author of this blasted document, I'll ask that 1) you stop arguing about nit-picky points about it, 2) don't change the title, and 3) stop attaching so much significance to it.

Thanks =-)

Scott
