That's the list. It will require a line-by-line code scan to figure all this stuff out. Creating such a list would probably take almost as long as actually fixing the docs. I don't think that the documentation changes should be a determining factor in switching to OpenRC. If we are going to endorse using OpenRC, the more relevant issues are the ones regarding its future development. The documentation can be updated in due time. Of course, that's just my opinion. --------------010203060603050405090604 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit On 24/08/10 22:21, Joshua Saddler wrote:

Hi,

Joshua Saddler <nightmorph@gentoo.org>:

The big issue with the docs is that IF OpenRC/baselayout-2 are marked
stable, it will require massive changes to hundreds of our other doc
files.

 Is there a list of the needed changes?

Read the OpenRC guide, then read all our other guides. That's the list. It will require a line-by-line code scan to figure all this stuff out. Creating such a list would probably take almost as long as actually fixing the docs.

I don't think that the documentation changes should be a determining factor in switching to OpenRC. If we are going to endorse using OpenRC, the more relevant issues are the ones regarding its future development. The documentation can be updated in due time. Of course, that's just my opinion.
