3a45e50f39 Bring this section up to reality. 
(1) Additional __FreeBSD_version's from <osreldate.h>.  Closes PR
    docs/1438.
Submitted by:	"David E. O'Brien" <obrien@Nuxi.cs.ucdavis.edu>

(2) Make it clear that when submitting a port, the package is not
    necassary.
Suggested by:	joerg

(3) Recommend people to use send-pr to send us notifications of new
    ports and upgrades so that they won't fall between the cracks.
Suggested by:	a lot of people

(4) Add a section about Motif and describe REQUIRES_MOTIF and
    MOTIFLIB.
Prodded by:	chuckr

(5) Revise the licensing problems section and describe the two
    variables RESTRICTED and NO_CDROM.

(6) Fill in the section about upgrading.  In particular, recommend to
    send in diffs of the old and new ports (these are "ports", not the
    original source or anything!), so it's easier to see what has
    changed.

b7903b6ac0 * Move questions re mounting CDROMs together 
(suggested by Darryl Okahata).

* Add explanation of what virtual consoles are
  (suggested by Francisco Reyes)

* Minor formatting change to fix docs/1378 (could some kind person
  close this for me? Thanks!)

* Removed references to obsolete /usr/share/FAQ/Text directory.

* Added details of UK supplier of FreeBSD CDs.

* Made the consequences of running ``make world'' more explicit.

1f47599122 Make temporary changes to the FAQ in time for 2.1.5, pending a more 
comprehensive re-write later.

* Ruthlessly condense questions so they fit on a single line (the
  TOC is now actually readable in lynx!). In one or two cases, this
  has meant splitting up questions or incorporating part of the old
  question into the answer.

* Make it clear that the question about disklabel'ing is actually
  about adding a second hard disk, provide a _much_ simpler answer and
  move it out of the installation section.

* Don't imply that the AHA2920 is supported (I suspect we will get a
  lot of queries about this)

* Reword the non-serious questions to hint that the answer may not be
  particularly informative...

* Correct typos and grammar, remove US-centric colloquialisms :-)

and many more.

cb4a54c743 Update the "CD-ROM not configured" question. 
"It would be good to point out that a machine that only has SCSI devices
may also generate this message if an IDE CD-ROM is not configured as
the Master device. Words like these might work ..."

        This generally means that there is no CDROM in the CDROM drive,
        or the drive is not visible on the bus. Feed the drive
        something, and/or check it's master/slave status.

09d44b1ef5 (This really shouldn't all be on one commit, but I forgot

Move the mailing list entities from authors.sgml to the new file
lists.sgml.  Add an entity for majordomo at the same time.

Avoid the use of contractions.  This revealed some grammer problems,

who do make speak English as a their first language.

239d617128 Add definitions for the various freebsd-* mailing lists so that 
we are consistent in how they are referenced in the handbook, and
so that they are now all clickable URLs.  E.g. no more mis-matched
freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org and hackers@freebsd.org.  They are used
just like the individual mail addresses defined in authors.sgml.
E.g. &a.doc will expand to:

FreeBSD documentation project mailing list <freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG>

Be consistent in using the FreeBSD.ORG address.  All references
to freebsd.org were changed to FreeBSD.ORG.

Use pre-defined addresses for some individuals where available.

8e1b33e6ff Go to orthogonal naming scheme for those hosts that support it. 
Remove some information in the process, but I'm trying to make this
as transparent as possible so that regions can move site names around
as ftp servers are created or go offline.

1ecb79ced4 Start adding all commiters to the list of authors. Hopefully in the 
future people will add docs as they change features.  This will keep us
from adding them when they do. (I had to do this anyway...)
