the oldest one I've seen is 2.0.5. you can completely remove these references. as Arjen says, it's 5++ years old. >>> Two specific areas that I would like to improve are the USB-related >>> questions and the ACL information.

It only seems to be available from the website documentation page. yep, it's part of the appendix contents (Appendix B) that will directly get included without change. I've not prioritized these while waiting for the chunk work (the single page tends to get enormous the specific case of the FAQ is that it already has a TOC. I don't know yet how it would behave, but having also the TOC in the UM appendix version is nice. I'm now inclined in thinking that we will also have to generate the txt files, along with the html ones. we need conditional content, mostly for cross references like for pointing text files or html chapters, ... I will have more visibility soon, once the user manual will be roughly completed. > Also, before we get too far along with editing, should we change the > filename to FAQ.txt to be consistent with the rest of the files in docs/ ? considering the last remark above, it makes sense to put FAQ.txt in docs and to output FAQ in the root dir... cheers, Arnaud _______________________________________________ Nut-upsdev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsdev
