Sorry - this is my bad. I should have thought to ask you. https://www.gnu.org/software/binutils/ If this is possible, please advise how to proceed. Take a slice of lemon, wrap it around a gold brick and, oh no, sorry, that is the recipe for a pan galactic gargle blaster. Ahem. If you can tell me what you want to say I will add it to the page. Even better if you can provide me with some HTML formatted text I can just insert it at the proper place. Cheers Nick

Hello Nick, On 8/10/22 5:56 AM, Nick Clifton wrote: Hi Ruud, Hi Kurt, gprofng - Collects and displays application performance data. I have replaced the previous description of gprofng with this line. great Related to this, we were wondering if we can get a gprofng page on href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://sourceware.org/projects.html__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!NNcLOUkmiDN7HSfZ_OLCmdPO5qzG4fsmuLyUrkpN4ZQHQsGr552XVvVleKFcBBP2Qh554Ksd-wqkheI$";>https://sourceware.org/projects.html Probably - but you will have to ask the overse...@sourceware.org for that. Unless you want it to be a sub-page of the binutils page that is. If you do want to take this route then all you really need is write access to the sourceware site and you can make your own changes. (Ideally coordinating with me... :-) I did inquire with the overseers about what was possible approximately two months ago and they suggested it would be best under binutils. A few things we are thinking would help gprofng: - a gprofng FAQ where questions could be answered and recorded for users or developers - pointers to useful gprofng presentations that were recorded by conferences - helpful info to support developers interested in porting gprofng to new platforms These would likely be asynchronously and incrementally changing as there are new questions asked or new presentations Do other binutils projects provide this sort of info somewhere? If this might be too much we could ask for a savannah.org project page, put this sort of info there, and link to it from sourceware.org? > also we might want to change the one liner on href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://sourceware.org/binutils/__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!NNcLOUkmiDN7HSfZ_OLCmdPO5qzG4fsmuLyUrkpN4ZQHQsGr552XVvVleKFcBBP2Qh554Ksd2LCBnfg$";>https://sourceware.org/binutils/ to match the new one above. Actually it works the other way around. I only have access to the sourceware site, so I make the changes there and then ask the FSF webmasters to copy over the changes to the href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://www.gnu.org__;!!ACWV5N9M2RV99hQ!NNcLOUkmiDN7HSfZ_OLCmdPO5qzG4fsmuLyUrkpN4ZQHQsGr552XVvVleKFcBBP2Qh554Ksdc8nhXsk$";>www.gnu.org site. (Just to confirm, this is what I have done with the updated description of gprofng - ie updated the sourceware site and asked the FSF to copy the changes). thank you! Kurt
