- remove the keyword soup that claims that FreeBSD still supports IPX,
ATM, EISA, and related.
- remove the word 'advanced' used way too often (and untruthfully
now-a-days)
- make 'available technology' not a goal of the document, thus making it
easier to keep up to date and reasonable
- wordsmith the abstract a bit
I have not seen an IDE drive in many years on a new system.
If we want to keep this information it should be be documented
in a better place than a long list of questions that
users tend not to read.
- contributing-ports moved into contributing
- OpenBSM redirects to TrustedBSD which is the entry immediately below.
- cvsweb is no longer maintained by the FreeBSD project
- TET integration is obsolete (per the wiki). Linking to the newer
project is left to a future commi
- binary-update refers to an older version of freebsd-update. This is
now documented in the handbook.
- vinum redirects to to an ad website
- Tertiary Disk - http://now.cs.berkeley.edu/Td/ is unreachable.
- OpenJDK 6 is not frequently updated. While its still available it is
also EoL so just stop referencing it.
The article discusses a specific option for puremagic's greylisting.
- It tells users to install mysql40-server and perl5.16; neither of
which exist any more.
- The last edit was 2015, by me, to switch from `pkg_add` to `pkg`.
- It encourages users to download code from a third-party website,
without validation, via HTTP (not even HTTPS).
- The code itself has to be patched to compile
and more generally the FreeBSD project is not in the business of
teaching end users how to run an anti-spam mail server.

if NO_OBJ is defined, but not about the value.
Which means you cannot unset NO_OBJ on the command line or with env variable:
$ make NO_OBJ=""
or
$ export NO_OBJ=""; make
I still think that 'make obj' doesn't really work for the doc
project. But for now, you have to disable it yourself on the command
line or in your ~/.profile.

from the base repository with changes provided by hrs@, and further
tweaks from myself.
Of note:
- Consolidate duplicated logic throughout the Makefiles and shared
logic, and move files to more sane locations where they may be
shared by other parts of the build tools.
- Update location of several entity files.
- In the top-level Makefile, only include the hardware page if the
MAN4PAGES knob is set. This is done to prevent build failures on
the website until the webupdate script and wrapper are updated,
which will require some more thought. [1]
This fixes the 'reldoc' target in release/Makefile in head, found
to be broken a few days ago.
