Porn Denver -- A leading developer of high-performance graphical
software has changed its name from X Inside to Xi Graphics. The
reason: Ongoing confusion between the software developer and the
increasing number of X-rated pornography companies on the Internet

538f9021da Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$ 
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

054a2b4659 List Peter da Silva explicitly as the maintainer. I feel this to be 
better than using the "FAQ" alias as people have either ignored or
misused the alias in the past, and this gives the feeling that there's
an actual person behind it now (which will be a nice change in any case :-).

828bb1d994 Add an entry about slow starting SCSI CD-ROM: 
When I booted my system without the above option, the CDROM could not
respond in time to the bootup probe of devices and was "missed".  When
I tried to access the device I got the "Device not configured" error
message.  I rebuilt the kernel with the SCSI_DELAY option and the
problem went away.

11a8214fd2 Gods, this is OLD! There's so much stale stuff in here, and it's so clearly 
NOT being maintained, that I vote for killing this document soon and
moving everything into the Handbook.  The FAQ needs to be "driven" a lot
more aggressively than it has been, and since that's clearly never going to
happen then we should kill it to halt the spread of outdated information.

8412ed7c28 Back out roberto's amendment to my update of the Australian distributor's 
address - Melbourne is a city in the state of Victoria, not vice versa! :-)

Also add reference to Greg Lehey's books in the appropriate section,
replace some redundant questions by pointers to the Handbook, replace
"look at this bit of the Handbook" pointers by URLs, clean up
inconsistent use of "one" and "you" and fix a couple of typos
introduced by my previous changes...
