Oh, Russ, > whatever happened? Thanks for the kick; I got off doing other things for a while, but keep thinking I should get back to this, particularly now that I'm helping with the OpenAFS packages for Debian. I'll mail Alf and ask if there's anything newer than the last time I looked, and start plugging away at this. So that people know, if I write the man pages I'll write them all in POD, based initially on the web page reference manual, and then use pod2man to convert them to man pages. One of the many pod2html converters can then also be used to convert them to web pages. If anyone objects strongly to that approach, speak up now. I think I can pretty easily do a few and get them submitted so that we can get started, and then the work becomes very parallelizable. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
