53c612b228 Add a blurb on how GNOME auto-detection works using the WANT_*/HAVE_* 
macros.

d2c014e835 Remove the part about setting WITH_GNOME et al. If a port properly sets 
WANT_GNOME, HAVE_GNOME will be set in bsd.gnome.mk if gnome-config is
detected.  This is the proper way to handle conditional GNOME dependencies.

8307312d3b Add Xfce to the list of GNOME compliant WM. Yes, Xfce is a whole 
desktop environment in itself, but it can run with GNOME.

I wish I knew where to document the fact that 4.5-RC2 for the alpha
was 20 Jan.

7dda79f99b Update the cdboot and man/no-catpages bullet items to indicate that 
these features will not be present in FreeBSD 4.5.

Add Sysinstall module loading and ATA code to the list of "Features to
explore carefully"

Link to ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases directory, where release
candidates may be downloaded.

Add a section for "Known issues" and document the missing packages on
RC2

a521c9e767 Put back my xalf workaround - according to marcus it actually works, the 
problem is likely to be with linux-jdk, which I used as a testbed. What we
actually need is linux-xalf, which would depend on FreeBSD xalf and install
only the Linux version of shared object.

234ef42a79 - Wrap things into a table for consistency with other pages; 
- use <h2> instead of <h3> for section headers to be consistent with
  docs/porting.sgml;
- wrap list entries into <p>...</p>, so that there is a line break
  between them;
- reword in some places.

Maxim Sobolev
ba71d3b5fd - Separate entries with one <br>, not two; 
- remove my workaround for the problem with xalf - for some reason it doesn't
  work and right not I do not have a time to debug what's going wrong;
- add another entry: Why GNOME is so huge, slow and basically useless?
- fix indentation in several places.
