From: Andreas Jaeger <aj@suse.de> Date: 13 Jul 2000 16:31:19 +0200 I've gone through all open bug reports for glibc and closed some of them. For the rest I've added some comments. I've made a HTML page and uploaded the page to <http://www.suse.de/~aj/pr-summary.html>. Thanks for doing this. Could you please look at the reports, send me your comments - and fix all open reports ;-) ? >From the web page: 1638 libc libc-2.1.2 Noncr libc-gn$ open doc-bug David Madore The O_NOLINK flag for open() is in the doc but not in headers How shall we name the Hurd? - the "GNU system" is confusing. We cannot call Linux *the* GNU system since it has arbitrary limits :-). But seriously, there are several places where the term is used throughout the documentation. We could of course be more specific in those places (the GNU systems vs. a Hurd-based GNU system vs. a Linux-based GNU system), but we could also say somewhere in the introduction that not all features of *the* GNU system are present in a Linux-based GNU system, and perhaps add an appendix describing the different feautures of Linux. I'm volunteering to write that short intro (which will of course be a shameless plug for the Hurd :-)), and make a start with the Linux-specific appendix, if people think this is a good idea. Mark
