Obsolete hints...
Authored by: GaelicWizard on Sep 27, '03 03:05:58AM

I was just thinking that it might be something worth while for someone to test and mark what hints expire with what operating system. For example, *all* the sendmail hints will expire with panther, since panther uses postfix. Also, postfix install hints will expire. Some things like how to install DarwinPorts will expire because its being updated and made easier at a very fast rate, and its part of panther. I would be happy to test any OSX specific things that no longer work in panther, if you'd be willing to add a note/icon to the specified hint, robg.

The reason that i'm thinking about this is that I do a fresh install with each 10.x release and i like to go back and apply all the hints that i've gotten from here that I did before, but its hard to search for them because I keep finding hints that are only gor 10.0/10.1/not-my-version. Does that make sense?

And yes, this is (sorta) on topic since we're talking about a new 10.x release and hints here on MACOSXHINTS. :-)
