0bf87d66b4 New FAQ: "How do I contribute to FreeBSD?" Answer with a pointer to 
the "How to Contribute" article.

Strangely, this has never made it into the FAQ before... we have
specific variants, i.e., "How to contribute kernel extensions", but
nothing on generically contributing.  This should probably supplant
more specific FAQs.

e793bb3d2c Correct a link to an article. 
While I'm here, rewrite the sentence to use something approaching
English grammar and syntax.

aea2cec472 Massive whitespace diff: replacing leading 8-space chunks with tabs. 
No content changes.

The spaces were actually causing some minor formatting bugs (i.e., the
word "Staples" being set off towards the middle of the page).  While
I'm fixing that, fix them all.

60c2283e72 Change the <filename role="package"> example to make it clear in the 
rendered version that "net/ethereal" (the example port) is a port.
I.e., change "Install net/ethereal" to "Install the net/ethereal
port".  I think this is how it should be done.  Nothing about
"net/ethereal" (or any other port described in this way) makes it
clear that this is indeed a port.  We can see that from the source,
but to a new user reading the rendered version it's a mystery.

9d1a5ade02 Replace the <port> tag with a construct in terms of <filename>: 
<filename role="package">.  The <port> tag as it was had two major
defects: (a) the name is ambiguous (does "port" mean "architecture"?
how about "TCP/UDP port"?), and (b) it introduces a non-standard (to
DocBook) tag, which is generally assumed to be evil.

ef2065d02e Add an article on the Release Engineering / QA activities for the 
third party software packages that accompany an official FreeBSD
release.

This document currently describes the "package split" procedure that
Steve Price uses to create clusters of like packages with similar
dependencies that are grouped onto specific discs.

In the future, this article should document the scripts that generate
clean packages on the bento cluster, the steps necessary to setup
another group of machines as a "Ports Cluster", and the scripts that
are used to verify the integrity of a package split.
