https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=273546 Bug ID: 273546 Summary: FreeBSD Handbook: descriptiveness, encouragement, etc cetera for people seeking testimonials and the like Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any URL: https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-doc/blob/main/docum entation/content/en/books/handbook/introduction/_index .adoc#22-who-uses-freebsd OS: Any Status: New Keywords: needs-patch, needs-qa Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Books & Articles Assignee: doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: grahamperrin@gmail.com Paraphrasing a recently received email, from an organisation that sponsored some commits. <https://freebsdfoundation.org/freebsd/> under 'Who is Using FreeBSD?', > … A more comprehensive list can be found here. … <https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/nutshell.html#introduction-nutshell-users> redirects to <https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/introduction/#nutshell> in the FreeBSD Handbook, > Welcome to FreeBSD! It was not immediately obvious where to find a more complete list of vendors that may be using FreeBSD. ---- When I dug, today: the link from the FreeBSD Handbook, back to the Foundation site, did find the organisation in a page that someone captured two months ago: <https://web.archive.org/web/2/https://freebsdfoundation.org/about-us/testimonials/>. The Project home page does more accurately link to <https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/introduction/#introduction-nutshell-users>, > Who Uses FreeBSD? – however, the Project's referring phrase does not do justice to the scope of Foundation-provided testimonials: > busiest web sites Side note: the home page can be improved by, amongst other things, a _direct_ link to testimonials. Some overlap with discreet work in progress on bug 273017. These things should, please, be out of scope for this bug report. ---- For this report: - focus on improving part(s) of the introduction within the Handbook - take inspiration from <https://freebsdfoundation.org/about-us/testimonials/> - I can contact someone at the Foundation, with reference to this report. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
