- How do I become a FreeBSD Web mirror?

-
-
- There are multiple ways to mirror the Web pages.
-
-
-
- You can retrieve the formatted files from a
- FreeBSD CVSup server using the application
- net/cvsup. The file
- /usr/share/examples/cvsup/www-supfile
- contains an example CVSup configuration file for web
- mirrors.

- You can download the web site source code from any

- What does MFC mean?
+
+ I have seen an acronym or other term on the mailing
+ lists and I do not understand what it means. Where should

- MFC is an acronym for Merged From -CURRENT
.
- It is used in the CVS logs to denote when a change was
- migrated from the CURRENT to the STABLE branches.

- What does BSD mean?

- It stands for something in a secret language that only

- to tell you that BSD's translation is something between,
- Formula-1 Racing Team
, Penguins are

, and We have a better sense of

- Seriously, BSD is an acronym for Berkeley

, which is the name the
- Berkeley CSRG (Computer Systems Research
- Group) chose for their &unix; distribution way back when.

- What does POLA mean?
-
-
-
- Principle of Least Astonishment. It means that as
- FreeBSD evolves, changes visible to the user should be
- kept as unsurprising as possible. For example,
- arbitrarily rearranging system startup variables in
- /etc/defaults/rc.conf violates POLA.
- Developers consider POLA when contemplating user-visible
- system changes.

- What is a repo-copy?
-
-
-
- A repo-copy (which is a short form of repository
- copy
) refers to the direct copying of files within
- the CVS repository.
-
- Without a repo-copy, if a file needed to be copied or
- moved to another place in the repository, the committer would
- run cvs add to put the file in its new
- location, and then cvs rm on the old file
- if the old copy was being removed.
-
- The disadvantage of this method is that the history
- (i.e. the entries in the CVS logs) of the file would not be
- copied to the new location. As the FreeBSD Project considers
- this history very useful, a repository copy is often used
- instead. This is a process where one of the repository meisters
- will copy the files directly within the repository, rather than
- using the &man.cvs.1; program.
