Dear NetBSD fellows,
during the next weekend the fifth NetBSD hackathon[1] will
take
place. This time, the hackathon will focus on NetBSD's
online
documentation, also known as htdocs (the CVS repository
containing the
WWW pages as well as the documentation).
Although the vast majority of htdocs already has been
converted to the
"new" DocBook/XML format, there are still a number
of pages left in
the "old" .list or even plain HTML format. In
order to have all
documentation in a consistend format (from which possible
future
documentation systems can convert from), the primary goal
for this
hackathon will be to convert those remaining files into
DocBook/XML. Of course, updates of actual content are also
more than
welcome.
The conversion of .list files to XML is not too much a
difficult
task. So, this is an excellent occasion for you to help the
NetBSD
project.
The hackathon will take place from Friday, 06. of April,
until Sunday,
08. of April, at #netbsd-code on irc.freenode.org.
Further details and instructions on how to get started can
be found at

Regards,
Daniel
