Subject: web page starting to show its age
Date: Thu, 03 Oct 2002 22:28:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <200210040121.g941Lhu04592@piper.synopsys.com> (raw)
There are several things about the web page gcc.gnu.org that are beginning
to show their age and should be revised. Take the first paragraph:
"In April 1999, the egcs steering committee was appointed by the FSF as the
official GNU maintainer for GCC. At that time GCC was renamed from the
"GNU C Compiler" to the "GNU Compiler Collection" and received a new
mission statement."
This was highly relevant to people who visited the site using the old
egcs.cygnus.com name, or were trying to understand what happened with
the egcs/gcc merger, but that's three years old.
I can try to think up some new text to go here, but others may have ideas.
Also:
Current release series: GCC 3.2
should say
GCC 3.2 (released 2002-08-14) is the last 3.2 release.
Under the "Bugs" menu on the bottom left, many folks won't know what GNATS
means. I suggest that the text be changed to "Bug database" or some such.
