ae2555c7b8 Super-special-side-menu-ify the XSL pages. I feel so 'leet right now. 
Special thanks to marcus for beating me upside the head with the
it's-right-in-front-of-your-nose stick.

427bb03212 Replace the standard FreeBSD side navigation menu thinger with a 
new fancypants FreeBSD/GNOME-specific one.

Note that the index.html and newsflash.html pages haven't been updated
because I can't figure out the magic XSL incantation to make them read
in the new includes.navgnome.sgml.

c33a0a5637 One problem with the new layout is that we don't get to have our 
project-specific links on the left anymore; instead, all the links to
our documents appear at the bottom. To prevent them from being missed
completely by confuzzled new users, I've tightened up and/or excised
non-essential text. I've taken out the "how to upgrade to GNOME 2.10"
thing (when 2.12 comes out, that section will replace the "where's my
GNOME 2.12?!" question), and I've taken out the state-of-the-port section.
I'm not entirely sure about that last one; please feel free to add it
back in if you feel it belongs.

8d67096409 There have been a number of upgrade failure reports, and most of them seem 
to stem from external dependencies not getting updated. (Here, external
dependencies are ports which do NOT depend upon glib20.) I'm suspecting that
the cause of this is inconsistent package databases. Inconsistent pkgdbs will
cause portupgrade(1) to silently fail, but portinstall and pkg_delete will
still work just fine. (I really wish gnu had agreed to make pkgdb(1) return
meaningful error codes -- or any error codes at all!)

So, instead of running pkgdb -F, we're now running pkgdb -fu. This will
hopefully rebuild the entire database from scratch, and leave us with a
consistent database every time. And just in case, we follow it with a
pkgdb -F for good measure.

Additionally, I've changed the script's version number to be a bit more
legible, and thus a bit more meaningful.

Also, there is now a -v option which prints some basic version/revision
information.

I'd like to thank Alexandre Vasconcelos's horribly inconsistent package
database for inspiring the pkgdb change ;;)

2b425e4e27 Apply some important fixes to the GNOME upgrade script that I really 
really really should have applied earlier.

	* On a restart, continue where we left off, instead of removing
	  all applications and starting over again. The end result will
	  be the same either way, but if you're not using ccache(1), the
	  build time can be really frustrating.

	* When the script runs pkgdb(1), pkgdb complains about the
	  nautilus-media port having been removed. Add a message to
	  inform users not to worry about it, and to just hit Enter
	  to ignore the error.

	* GNOME_UPGRADE_SH_VER bump.

or people were serious with their comments and really don't want to
have to see our faces.

But they're just a bunch of stupidheads anyway.

So, nuke the images/team directory, and put all the images into
images/.
