34119c9ae2 Q: "Does FreeBSD support my USB keyboard?" 
A: "For at least five years."

0eb6fd75ba Remove some 3.X information from FAQ. 
Anyone still running FreeBSD from the previous century probably isn't
reading the FAQ.

2e65a05279 A process doesn't "like" to do anything, and "always does" is not an 
example.

e0a653d49b The FAQ is guilty of egregious and annoying use of the word "simply," 
i.e.:

"Simply use this command" is vaguely patronizing, especially when the
command is a Perl regex with a few obscure (to new users) command-line
options attached.  "Use this command" answers the question, and
doesn't imply that you should know this already.

In most cases, when you begin a sentence with the word "simply" you
shouldn't.  Simply begin your sentence with the second word instead.

59141428ec Use widely supported smartquote entities rather than double ``ticks''. 
Works well with mozilla, opera, lynx, and links, but the entities are
not supported by w3m.

output of find(1) is piped into xargs (instead of being passed to
-exec cmd), there's no need for that.

865b53d924 Remove stub chapters that are relics of Jeroen's original proposal for 
a Developer Handbook.

In 5 years we haven't had anyone contribute a chapter on Alpha
Assembly Language programming, Linux Compatability, Syscons, UFS,
AFS/NFS, or Signals.  If someone wants to in the future, great, but
there is no need for empty stub chapters anymore.

There are much better sources for this content in the D&I book and
Stevens' APUE.

Removing these stubs makes the content that we do have more apparent,
rather than focussing on what has yet to be written.
