From f8a59eae48010cbd4c416724bae30e8a122108d2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Warner Losh Date: Tue, 31 Aug 1999 17:01:34 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Add blurb Jonathan Lemmon provided about the new TCP timer values. I didn't document the couple day window when the units were in terms of ticks rather than ms. Also add note about libreadline major version retrograde motion. --- UPDATING | 21 +++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+) diff --git a/UPDATING b/UPDATING index 2433ac21cdf7..6c75641636ed 100644 --- a/UPDATING +++ b/UPDATING @@ -3,6 +3,27 @@ Updating Information for FreeBSD current users This file is maintained by imp@village.org.
