such as changes to the contents of documentation and build infrastructure.</p>
<h3>Documentation fixes for the src/ tree</h3>
<p>All changes must be committed to the parent branch first,
vetted through that branch for 2 days.
Content fixes must be sent with a PR number when the changes
are large or involve one of the TODO items (these are periodically
posted to the freebsd-doc@ mailing list during the release cycle,
and should also be filed as PRs). When the changes are self-explaining, send
them to re@ as an MFC request.
Changes that are widespread or cover significant technical information
should be reviewed without exception.</p>
<h3>Documentation fixes for the doc/ tree</h3>
<p>Similar policy is applied to the doc/ tree,
but since doc/ is not branched and is not frozen, trivial fixes
are allowed to be committed without explicit approval before BETA4.
Content fixes must be committed with a PR number when the changes
are large or involve one of the TODO items (these are periodically
posted to the freebsd-doc@ mailing list during the release cycle,
and should also be filed as PRs). When the changes are self-explaining, you can
commit them into the doc/ tree. When you are not sure if
committing your patch without approval is reasonable or not,
please ask doceng@. Documentation Engineering Team
reserves the right to reject and back out your change.
After BETA4, doc/ slush begins and non-critical
changes to English documents are discouraged.</p>
<h3>Translations</h3>
<p>The above two policies also apply to translations,
but all changes are considered as trivial changes during
the period before the doc/ slush is over.</p>
