67a1702cec Remove almost all instances of "try and <verb>" from the docs. 
There is one remaining place in the fdp-primer, but that needs
a bit more work.

81620407d5 Insert a new section in the Committer's Guide entitled "Commit Bit Types" 
which discusses the notion of areas of authority for the CVS repository,
the parties responsible for each area and allocating commit rights for it,
and general practices for expanding the scope of a commit bit to new
areas of the tree.  Throw in some text reminding everyone that review
of source code is always a good idea.

b9a19509fb After much agonizing, attempt to refine the commit log composition 
instructions.  The potentially conflicting instructions could be taken
to encourage less than ideal commit logs.  Explicitly say that we're
after a clear, concise and reasonable summary of the change.
