I'm working on it. When sysupdating with sysupdate it fetches the last update from hg, which contains git9 and a new version of sysupdate itself. This new sysupdate (after mk install) fetches the .git seed directory, which allows to fetch the new updates into /dist/plan9front. All following sysupdates work like before, but using git9 instead of hg. I don't know what exactly is the plan, but that's at least what I get as a normal user with sysupdate. If in doubt, ask ori? I haven't been very active in the community lately due to work and Unreal Engine 5. sirjofri ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 25+ messages in thread

I tend to complain about everything sl does, mainly bec. he is involved in doing many things. maybe this will help revise my former half-assed comments: 1) shitty best-effort documentation is better than no documentation. 2) maybe some person is running straight from a new 9front iso and has no web or internet access, this should be rewarded not penalized, so ... (also, copy&paste is easier when the docs are on the same machine) 3) the .iso should contain all possible best and worst effort documentation that has been gathered so far 4) the 9front/cat-v websites should also include all the documentation (e.g. that's why man pages are accessible via the web, too), bec. some people have 2 computers, and one of them can be used to read the documentation on the website the rest, like how easy it is to find the wiki on the website, shouldn't matter much in comparison, as it being web means it should show up on google anyway, as even the guy in the youtube video found out. and maybe if morale improves and people like me also add some effort to improve upon the content already there, the low quality or duplicated scattered information will get more readable and more efficient and shorter, too. so far i revoked all attempts made by myself to improve upon documentation as i wasn't happy with the inefficiency of my english that i came up with.

I guess we're too busy wannabeing 90s hackers to help Systems with JT. I don't know what to tell people who manage to get their hands on the ISO but somehow completely ignore the pdf handbook linked on every single release page.

I can't speak for kvik but I always thought the goal was to be comprehensive. People complained that the FQA was considered 'the' documentation when nobody voted for sl, now people are complaining that other efforts are masquerading as 'the' documentation. Unless and until the project develops a watery tart to lob scimitars at people I don't see the advantage in promoting one best-effort documentation project over another, even if I happen to prefer one. khm ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 25+ messages in thread

I'm gonna set up a redirect next week when I'm home, somebody else with write access can substitute the words beforehand. It's been done. The DNS change will take a while to propagate. I've also renamed the repository on sourcehut, which means commiters will have to adjust their .git/config to point at https://git.sr.ht/~kvik/wiki.9front.org sl, when you find some time you should do the same for docs.9front.org domain and cetera.

Expectation-management is a common problem, and it's completely intractable when the expectations to be managed are those of complete strangers wandering past at random. I don't really think it's worth putting a huge amount of effort into, since no matter what you do there will be someone whining, somewhere. khm ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 25+ messages in thread
