finally united.
Add information about FreeBSD-derived projects FreeSBIE and PC-BSD on
two of the second level pages of the FreeBSD website.
Discussed with: rwatson, matt
1. Remove the "Download instructions"
- The mentioned site is not updated any longer so it's just
confusing for newbies.
- Most newbies don't download via FTP. Even if they
do, they will normally download the ISO-images, not the
different distributions.
- www/en/where.sgml already describes how to get FreeBSD
and is up-to-date.
2. "The Complete FreeBSD"
- This book can be downloaded free of charge since 2006 from
http://www.lemis.com/grog/Documentation/CFBSD/. So link to
this site.
3. article "new-users".
- It has been in the doc-tree for a long time now. So link
to it.
- The docs at the also mentioned FTP-site are outdated.
Recent versions are available from the FreeBSD.org servers
(just like the article itself).

+ Add a link to Unix System Administration course from OSU,
which would be useful for newbies as well.

- Move includes.nav*.sgml to share/sgml/navibar.ent and
<lang>/share/sgml/nabibar.l10n.ent.
- Move includes.sgml and includes.xsl to
share/sgml/common.ent, share/sgml/header.ent, <lang>/share/sgml/l10n.ent,
and <lang>?share/sgml/header.l10n.ent.
- Move most of XSLT libraries to share/sgml/*.xsl and
<lang>/share/sgml/*.xsl.
- Move news.xml and other *.xml files for the similar purpose
to share/sgml/*.xml and <lang>/share/sgml/*.xml.
- Switch to use a custom DTD for HTML document. Now we use
"-//FreeBSD//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional-Based Extension", which is
HTML 4.01 + some entities previously pulled via
"<!ENTITY % includes SYSTEM "includes.sgml"> %includes;" line.
The location of entity file will be resolved by using catalog file.
- Add DOCTYPE declearation to XML documents. This makes the followings
possible:
* Use of &foo; entities for SGML in an XML file instead of defining
{$foo} as the same content.
* &symbolic; entities for Latin characters.
- Duplicated information between SGML and XML, or English and
translated doc, has been removed as much as possible.

can be found, i.e., http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi at the moment.
This allows for easier pre-commit testing of CGI scripts, and avoids
SNAFUs with an incorrect URL being committed, as has happened a couple
of times recently.
en/ should be fully converted with this commit; other languages need to
be updated, but are in mid merge molasses at present so I have not
touched them.
one in a comment; since the former is clearly visible from the top of
the file, the latter's only purpose was to bloat the repository a
little more.
No objections by: -doc, -www
server's directory index configuration to DTRT (i.e., link to
"ports/index.html" rather than "ports/"). This also makes it easier
for people without the desire to set up a web server to test changes
to the web site.
