How to Edit This Page

updated 22 Dec 1997

This will hopefully be the place to collaborate on the static version of the Namespace and Package Frequently Asked Questions in between snapshots.

Please don't make arbitrary changes. Most of the information contained in this document is the result of long and time consuming debates on the Mailing Lists. The idea of this page is to consolidate the information we agree upon, or sometimes the information we agree to disagree upon.

An arbitrary change could be defined as any change that is simply your opinion or viewpoint, and hasn't been discussed in detail on the JOS mailing lists. Otherwise, feel free to consolidate information from our discussions here.

Keep in mind, the purpose of a FAQ is to answer questions, not ask them. If you have a question, try asking them on the mailing list first.

If you have major issues with the content of this document, feel free to join the discussion on the mailing lists.
