e98c11906b Move some of the important link categories towards the top of the page. 2005-10-16 20:04:38 +00:00

c33a0a5637 One problem with the new layout is that we don't get to have our 
project-specific links on the left anymore; instead, all the links to
our documents appear at the bottom. To prevent them from being missed
completely by confuzzled new users, I've tightened up and/or excised
non-essential text. I've taken out the "how to upgrade to GNOME 2.10"
thing (when 2.12 comes out, that section will replace the "where's my
GNOME 2.12?!" question), and I've taken out the state-of-the-port section.
I'm not entirely sure about that last one; please feel free to add it
back in if you feel it belongs.

e24489430d Use the relative link to the development branch FAQ on FreeBSD.org instead of 
Adam's test page :-D.

970dd762bb It's really really belated, but: add a paragraph answering the question 
"where's GNOME 2.12?!" It pointes people to the development FAQ, but
advises them to wait until it's merged into the ports tree.

6cc8f8122a Improve on the gnomelogalyzer. Now, it can generate its own buildlog and 
analyse that, rather than requiring you to generate the buildlog yourself
and pass it as a command-line argument.

944e909aa4 GNOME 2.8 is now in the ports tree, so re-enable the link telling users how 
to upgrade.  Also, 4.9 is EOL, so remove it from the supported versions
list.  We will no longer be building packages or testing on 4.9.

592e8534e2 Announcing GNOME 2.6! 
There's a new upgrade FAQ, and a new script to handle the upgrading. Do
not upgrade GNOME without it!

Also incorporated are a number of grammar and readability fixes.

800aa66217 Add a new FAQ concerning development branch tracking. This should help users 
with tracking development releases of GNOME, plus give them information on
reporting bugs, known issues, and what more they can do to help.

The bulk of this work was by adamw, with some additional content and
formatting changes.

a copy of FreeBSD in their distros. ::)
