The FreeBSD Almanac
News
I've found a site to put my Almanac on and soon it will be there! I'll
update this when I get it up. Thanks for your patience.
Things I hope to do with this almanac soon:
- Add information about my porting efforts, especially the ports
that have been the most difficult for me.
- Add more sites relating to FreeBSD, of course. As of right now,
there are approximately 160 links here.
- Post some neat shell/perl scripts I've come across or written
myself that help enhance the FreeBSD experience. These scripts
may or may not be specific to FreeBSD, but they sure will help
get around a few deficiencies in certain tools.
- Write up some neato script to track porting efforts of programs
that have not yet been ported to FreeBSD. It'll probably end up
being a lot like Freshmeat, and will get most of its information
off Freshmeat too. :-)
- Write up a "credits" page since some of the links here were ripped
from other people's sites, although 80% of them I stumbled onto
myself. ;-)
- Write up a document about how to get help the most efficient way. This
doc will probably be geared towards long-time Linux users. (which
means, I will probably need a lot of help.. ;) Of course, such a doc
might somewhat obsolete my entire Almanac, but it will only present
the HOWs, not the WHEREs of getting help.
Any suggestions, questions, comments, etc., feel free to send me email.
