1fb15d8f7a Add a new project called "GNOME and/or KDE front-ends to the freebsd-update(8)
utility."  cperciva acts as technical contact for the freebsd-update part of
the project, but it would be nice to have someone with experience from
writing GNOME/KDE applications as a technical contact/mentor as well.

26900d50a3 - Change the "Report a Bug" link to point to support/bugreports.html
instead of the PR form directly. Each user should read these
  guidelines before sending a PR, but currently it seems they don't
  do it always. We receive questions via PRs, which should be sent to
  mailing lists instead, or PRs with not enough information and
  rarely non-English PRs as well. I hope this will help a bit.

06bd2127e0 Move ideas list to an XML format so that we can have just one data
source and extract and display the projects listed here in multiple
ways.  For example, those projects that are suitable for summer of
code can be designated with an attribute and then extracted to
automatically be displayed on the summer of code pages, so that we
only have to maintain one list instead of two.

Correct a typo in one of the idea descriptions while here.
