and Webster's paper, we did not know how many strong speudoprime tests
were required when testing alleged primes between 3825123056546413051
and 2^64 - 1.

This allows us to use `wtf is` and get information for the acronym "is"
and produces the same output as `wtf is is` withough requiring the extra
typing by the user.

Today is the 150th birthday anniversary of Jozef Pilsudski (1867-1935).
Originally, MKCRYPTO was introduced because the United States
classified cryptography as a munition and restricted its export. The
export controls were substantially relaxed fifteen years ago, and are
essentially irrelevant for software with published source code.
In the intervening time, nobody bothered to remove the option after
its motivation -- the US export restriction -- was eliminated. I'm
not aware of any other operating system that has a similar option; I
expect it is mainly out of apathy for churn that we still have it.
Today, cryptography is an essential part of modern computing -- you
can't use the internet responsibly without cryptography.
The position of the TNF board of directors is that TNF makes no
representation that MKCRYPTO=no satisfies any country's cryptography
regulations.
My personal position is that the availability of cryptography is a
basic human right; that any local laws restricting it to a privileged
few are fundamentally immoral; and that it is wrong for developers to
spend effort crippling cryptography to work around such laws.
As proposed on tech-crypto, tech-security, and tech-userlevel to no
objections:

P.S. Reviewing all the uses of MKCRYPTO in src revealed a lot of
*bad* crypto that was conditional on it, e.g. DES in telnet... That
should probably be removed too, but on the grounds that it is bad,
not on the grounds that it is (nominally) crypto.

Incidentally, the above examples show the smallest and largest cases that
were erroneously stated as prime in the range 2^32 .. 3825123056546413049
.. 2^64; the primes(6) program now stops at 3825123056546413050 as
primality tests on larger integers would be by brute force factorization.
In addition, special to the NetBSD version:
. for -d option, skip first difference when start is >65537 as it is incorrect
. corrected usage to mention both the existing -d as well as the new -h option

Move all the reference manuals to subdirs of /usr/share/doc/reference.
We have subdirs ref1-ref9, corresponding to man page sections 1-9.
Everything that's the reference manual for a program (sections 1, 6,
8), C interface (sections 2, 3), driver or file system (section 4),
format or configuration (section 5), or kernel internal interface
(section 9) belongs in here.
Section 7 is a little less clear: some things that might go in section
7 if they were a man page aren't really reference manuals. So I'm only
putting things in reference section 7 that are (to me) clearly
reference material, rather than e.g. tutorials, guides, FAQs, etc.
This obviously leaves some room for debate, especially without first
editing the docs with this distinction in mind, but if people hate
what I've done things can always be moved again.
Note also that while roff macro man pages traditionally go in section
7, I have put all the roff documentation (macros, tools, etc.) in one
place in reference/ref1/roff. This will make it easier to find and
also easier to edit it into some kind of coherent form.
Update the <bsd.doc.mk> infrastructure, and update the docs to match
the new infrastructure.
- Build and install text, ps, pdf, and/or html, not roff sources.
- Don't wire the chapter numbers into the build system, or use them in
the installed pathnames. This didn't matter much when the docs were a
museum, but now that we're theoretically going to start maintaining
them again, we're going to add and remove documents periodically and
having the chapter numbers baked in creates a lot of thrashing for no
purpose.
- Specify the document name explicitly, rather than implicitly in a
path. Use this name (instead of other random strings) as the name
of the installed files.
- Specify the document section, which is the subdirectory of
/usr/share/doc to install into.
- Allow multiple subdocuments. (That is, multiple documents in one
output directory.)
- Enumerate the .png files groff emits along with html so they can be
installed.
- Remove assorted hand-rolled rules for running roff and roff widgetry
and add enough variable settings to make these unnecessary. This
includes support for
- explicit use of soelim
- refer
- tbl
- pic
- eqn
- Forcibly apply at least minimal amounts of sanity to certain
autogenerated roff files.
- Don't exclude USD.doc, SMM.doc, and PSD.doc directories from the
build, as they now actually do stuff.
Note: currently we can't generate pdf. This turns out to be a
nontrivial problem with no immediate solution forthcoming. So for now,
as a workaround, install compressed .ps as the printable form.

either) and it will, or is supposed to, DTRT.

of external data and function declarations between the two programs.
Common constants and defines now go in hunt_common.h. Stuff that belongs
only to hunt is in hunt/hunt_private.h. Stuff that belongs only to huntd
is in huntd/hunt.h.
Copy some declarations that are used in both programs under the same
names (but are not actually the same objects) from huntd/hunt.h to
hunt/hunt_private.h. Move others that are only used in hunt. Remove
some entirely unused material, and tidy up standard includes.
hunt-players mailing list.
In this day and age it doesn't even begin to work: even if you were to
have such a mailing list locally, sendmail wouldn't expand it for you,
the addresses you got back wouldn't be talk-requestable addresses,
talk requests don't cross NAT or firewalls safely, talk doesn't
support ipv6, and nobody runs talkd anyway.
It doesn't make sense to try to replace it with some other kind of
notify scheme either; there might still be a multiuser machine
somewhere with enough simultaneous users that broadcasting something
akin to talk requests locally might make sense, and where a nontrivial
number of the users actually play hunt, but probably not, and if so
those users are likely to be better off using wall(1) anyway. Nowadays
games will be set up by looking for people in chat or by emailing or
texting friends.
Theoretically someone could set up an internet hunt metaserver for
finding hunt games, but that would be something entirely different
anyway and I doubt there's demand.
