- Force column width to improve rendering.
- Remove a number of pieces of information which is either obsolete or
just not important. This includes removing reference to using telnet
which was already obsolete when I got a commit bit in 2003...
- Point people at freefall.
- Remove the hardcoded lists of members of cvsadm and GNATS admins -
this just duplicated administration.html and new committers should
not need to bug the two teams so often that they need to be pointed
out more than the many other active administrative teams. [1]
- Point at dcvs and pcvs for CVS repo's, as those are still in use by
developers.
- Don't use entities for internal mailing lists which expands to the
names as the result is just confusing and not useful. This part
should probably be changed to be a section with more text instead of
trying to include most info inside a table.
- Add information about portmgr monthly reports.
- Add a few links to some useful internal pages with more information.
- Misc minor text cleanup.

- Don't use &os; for 'FreeBSD' in the advisory sample header. It buys
us nothing but makes it harder to read and the actual name of an
advisory is FreeBSD-SA-XX:XX. If we ever were to add (r) to the
&os; macro the advisory name would then not be corect anymore.
- Fix broken whitespace in advisory sample where it didn't align correct
note that this is a content change and should be merged by
translators as it changes the output.
- Don't say "@EMAIL-ADDRESS" in Credits sample - the Security Team
doesn't actually use mail address for that field, but names.
the current state of how the things are done
- add a new paragraph covering the fact that rc.conf is read by sh(1)
