interesting list, thanks. Also, 700 entries is not a bad result considering the size of the codebase and the age of parts of it (i am pretty sure there is a lot of code 15+ years old which received little if any mainteinance or use in the past decade). (and i have nothing against old code except that compilers, coding practices and the amount of peer review have improved a lot over time, and so -- with some exceptions -- it is easier to prevent some of these issues with more recent code). cheers luigi _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
