I should say "less convenient" layout. Pardon.

I recapped your words.

Maybe. But look on software project. There is a team of developers,
analysts, and managers and on the other side a user in a form of
another team of managers, workers, and computer maintainers. The two
teams have to work out common project. For users, __not for
themselves__. Do you see the division? Woild you call it deception?

Your experience should prompt you right answer.

I got nothing against Jeremy! I only wanted to show you "a mechanism",
a habit of doing things ad hoc.

No, no, no! I'd like to do it within framework of NetBSD pages. But I'd
like first to find out "where and what". So I asked if some changes
would be possible.

You're damn right serious. Didn't you feel a touch of humor?

Wrong answer. Read the threads once more. If you are too lazy you'll
find the correct answer in netbsd-docs in my email to Andrew Ball. Of
course "hostilities" fit into the whole "7 point memo". You can read it
as "argues".

You missed one point where I proposed to move some pages from NetBSD to
wiki. Once to relieve NetBSD, twice, to shore up wiki.
