- Subject: Host name guidelines? (and more)
Hi all. I'm about to add a new host to newlib, and I wonder if there are
more precise guidelines than "machine-vendor-os". In particular: who's the
"vendor", exactly? the machine's or the os's? And what characters can be
used as "os", other than alphanumeric? I'm using newlib to power ReactOS's
POSIX environment, called POSIX+, and I wonder if a host name of
"i386-reactos-posix+" would be legal
Another question: I tried to compile the TEX files into HTML, but makeinfo
complains about missing nodes. Are the docs available in HTML form
elsewhere? or does anyone know what makeinfo complains about?
