Update the Committer's Guide
- section 21 covers much of the same areas as the new Code of
Conduct, but the CoC is authoritative. Update wording where
there is some disagreement.
- Add a new section on Privacy and Confidentiality which was felt to
be too committer specific to go into the general Code of Conduct.

- All ref* machines are reference machines with similar
hardware configurations (excluding ia64, sparc64).
- We don't need to list administrative (infrastructural)
machines, so they're removed. If anyone wants to know,
it's in DNS.
- Hub is deprecated. Yay.
- Remove the 'type' column for various machines. People
that are interested (and have access) can check dmesg(8).
- Remove a site-specific reference, as we have many sites
now, and this page is not the right place to thank the
generous bandwidth/power/facility providers for our many
sites.

new committer proposals to:
- Provide more details on the contents of a suitable proposal, including
a request for evidence of constructive engagement with the mentor (e.g.,
through successfully completed patch cycles).
- Be more overt about identifying community participation (but also more
open about what it means -- mention BSD-conference talks, for example).
- Suggest contacing core@ informally first if there are worries about
whether there is sufficient contribution or concern about a proposal
failing.
- Expand thinking on 'vendor commit bits' -- both the responsibilities of
the mentor, and also the hope that such contributors will broaden their
interests over time.

hardware refreshes since this list was last updated.
Remove the ports build machines for now, the existing specs and hosts are
very outdated but I don't know enough about the ports build infrastructure
to refresh it at the moment. I plan to update this in the coming days.
outdated, and two of the internal links return 404 for data that

It has suffered hardware from more hardware failure than is
reasonably feasible to restore the machine to a working state.
If it were a horse, it would have been turned into glue years
ago.

and hub.FreeBSD.org. With how the infrastructure is set up, it
is probably not reasonable to try to keep these pieces current.
Reword the leading sentence of the next paragraph so it makes
sense with the first paragraph removed.

- Replace /XML/{doc,www}/ with /XML/ in SysId.
- Remove empty stylesheets in share/xsl and point share/xml/empty.xsl via
XML catalog instead.
- Change the L10N layer in freebsd-*.xsl not to use localized XSLT
stylesheets directly.
- Move share/xsl/* to share/xml and remove share/xsl.
- Remove obsolete share/web2c/pdftex.def.
The primary purposes are to clean up duplicated author definitions in
both share/xml/authors.ent and share/xml/developers.ent, and as a added
bonus simplify writing up author names/email addresses in web pages.
Apart from merging developers.ent into authors.ent, removing the former,
and updating the Committers Guide there should be little user-visible changes:
- a.portmgr renamed to a.portmgr.members
- a.doceng renamed to a.doceng.members
- team.re renamed to a.re.members.email and moved from
share/xml/freebsd.ent to share/xml/authors.ent
- a.core updated and moved from share/xml/mailing-lists.ent to
share/xml/teams.ent
- share/pgpkeys/{addkey.sh|README} updated
Translations are untouched except for build fixes.

- Remove references to CVS, everything is in Subversion now
- The "mentors" file is used in the ports repo, as well as in src/doc
- Commits to "access" should include the new committer's username
- Stop encouraging people to mirror the FreeBSD web site
- Update the instructions to use csup rather than cvsup
- Remove details for compiling cvsup
- Stop linking to pages which no longer contains info on cvsup
- Fix the instructions
- Remove incorrect info about how often the FreeBSD website updates.
This page can probably just be removed, but until then it can at least be
correct.

- doceng@ is not new at all
- clarify two types of doc commit bits
- doc is now in SVN
- remove stating translators will be added to doceng@ since this text has
been there for a long time but it never has been a criterion when
inviting members
- voting deadline is 2 weeks (however, it is a worst case) for doceng
since there are only four members and we need representative numbers
for a vote
- style fixes
