                                              Paris, 17 July 1998

                                              Bulletin C 16

                                              To authorities responsible for
                                              the measurement and distribution
                                              of time

                                   UTC TIME STEP
                            on the 1st of January 1999

       A positive leap second will be introduced at the end of December 1998.
       The sequence of dates of the UTC second markers will be:

                          1998 December 31,     23h 59m 59s
                          1998 December 31,     23h 59m 60s
                          1999 January   1,      0h  0m  0s

  The difference between UTC and the International Atomic Time TAI is:

  from 1997 July 1,    0h UTC, to 1999 January 1, 0h UTC  : UTC-TAI = - 31s
  from 1999 January 1, 0h UTC, until further notice       : UTC-TAI = - 32s

       Leap seconds can be introduced in UTC at the end of the months of
 December or June, depending on the evolution of UT1-TAI. Bulletin C mailed
 every six months, either to announce a time step in UTC, or to confirm that
 there will be no time step at the next possible date.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file
was last revised on: $Id: README,v 1.12 1998/06/30 08:08:05 jkh Exp $

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel and the contents of /etc.  Please see the top of the Makefile
in this directory for more information on the standard build targets
and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process,
documentation for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not
just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference
than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it
wouldn't even run).
