<!-- Simple schema for FreeBSD Project news.
|
|
|
|
Divide time in to <year>, <month>, and <day> elements, each of which
|
|
has a <name>.
|
|
|
|
each <day> element contains one or more <event> elements.
|
|
|
|
Each <event> contains an optional <title>, and then a <p>. <p> elements
|
|
can contain <a> anchors. Within the "href" attribute of the anchor
|
|
$base will be replaced with the base URI necessary to reach the FreeBSD
|
|
document root, and should always be used to start URLs at www.FreeBSD.org
|
|
or one of the mirrors.
|
|
|
|
Use the <title> element if the <p> content is lengthy. When generating
|
|
synopses of this information (e.g., for syndication using RDF files),
|
|
the contents of <title> will be preferred over <p>.

<title>FreeBSD 5.3-RC2 released</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>The FreeBSD Release Engineering Team is proud to
|
|
announce the availability of FreeBSD 5.3-RC2. Two
|
|
critical issues came up during RC1 testing and it is
|
|
felt the fixes warrant one more RC so they receive
|
|
widespread testing. If no more show-stopper problems
|
|
are found this will be the last test release done before
|
|
5.3-RELEASE. Please see the full announcement on
|
|
FreeBSD-CURRENT <a

<title>Removal of Gallery</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>Because of the hard maintenance and low benefit the
|
|
<a href="../gallery/">gallery</a>
|
|
pages bring to the Project and the listed websites,
|
|
it has been decided to spend the time working on other
|
|
stuff related to FreeBSD than these pages. The gallery
|
|
will be removed in two weeks, no further submissions will
|
|
be processed. However, this has no influence on the
|
|
<a href="../commercial/">Commercial Gallery</a>.</p>

<title>PAE support merged for upcoming FreeBSD 4.9</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>Luoqi Chen has begun the process of merging PAE support
|
|
from FreeBSD 5 to FreeBSD 4-STABLE. The PAE support
|
|
allows FreeBSD machines to make use of more than 4
|
|
gigabytes of RAM. This functionality was originally
|
|
written by Jake Burkholder under contract with DARPA and
|
|
Network Associates Laboratories. Additional changes for
|
|
individual device drivers will follow in the coming
|
|
weeks.</p>

<title>New performance@ mailing list</title>
|
|
|
|
<p>The performance@ mailing list exists to provide a place
|
|
for hackers, administrators, and/or concerned parties to
|
|
discuss performance related topics pertaining to FreeBSD.
|
|
Acceptable topics includes talking about FreeBSD
|
|
installations that are either under high load, are
|
|
experiencing performance problems, or are pushing the
|
|
limits of FreeBSD. Concerned parties that are willing to
|
|
work toward improving the performance of FreeBSD are
|
|
highly encouraged to subscribe to this list. This is a
|
|
highly technical list ideally suited for experienced
|
|
FreeBSD users, hackers, or administrators interested in
|
|
keeping FreeBSD fast, robust, and scalable. To subscribe,
|
|
please visit the <a
