- Changes Since Last FreshFish CD-ROM
- (Updated 1/31/95)
-
- This file lists significant changes since the last FreshFish CD-ROM, except
- for the usual and expected differences like all the new material submitted
- since the last FreshFish CD-ROM and updates to the useful material that is
- included with each release.
-
- ========
- BSD tree
- ========
-
- The BSD tree is now gone. The parts of it that were still interesting
- were integrated into the GNU tree.
-
- ======================
- Changes in Useful tree
- ======================
-
- We have eliminated the "dist" directory level and moved all the directories
- that were in "dist" into the root directory of the useful tree. We have
- also moved the contents of the "Catalogs" and "Reviews" directories into
- an appropriate subdirectory in the useful tree.
-
- ==========
- Two-CD set
- ==========
-
- The most obviously visible change is that we have gone to a two-CD set
- format for this and future FreshFish CD's.
-
- After completing volume 7, we realized that we were rapidly running out of
- room on a single CD. Since we have plans to greatly expand the amount of
- material in the "GNU" and "Useful" portions of the FreshFish CD, as well as
- continue to add more material to the "New" section, we decided to expand the
- FreshFish CD's to a two-CD set. Although these two CD's contain over 1 Gb
- total of material, with room to expand by several hundred megabytes, there
- is also about 150 Mb of material in the BBS section from previous FreshFish
- CD's, that can be eliminated if necessary from future CD's. This should
- give us room to grow for at least another year or so.
-
- ====================
- New AmigaGuide files
- ====================
-
- We have included some new, automatically generated, AmigaGuide files in
- the root directories of the major sections of this cd (BBS, GNU, New,
- Useful), that should make it easier to simply browse the CD contents
- from WorkBench. For serious searches for specific material, we still
- recommend KingFisher.
-
- ======================
- Ports of GNU utilities
- ======================
-
- For information about changes in the GNU utility tree, see the file
- GNU/README.
