4949a2673a Add a newsflash to note that -STABLE is now frozen.
Also, move David Xu's new committer entry to September.  I don't think
he meant to add it to the day/month of the previous entry which was
Aug 21.

we're satisfied with the system stability and some of the bigger open
issues have been resolved -- do not promise a specific date.

a4d15f89ee Note that RELENG_4 is now frozen, and that while HEAD is open, new code
that will not be production ready in three months should not be committed
at this time.  Also define some entities to make this easier to maintain
while I'm here.

ad0f385f5f Informational fix: s/Intel IA32/x86/ on the front page.
The x86 platform is not only Intel.  Not only Intel contributed to what
the architure and platform has become.  Therefore don't refer to it as
an Intel-only thing.

2918f712f8 Change the status of "interrupt context stealing (lightweight interrupt
scheduling) for i386" from "wip" to "suspended" for now.  The truth is,
the work is sitting in my p4 branch ('interrupt') but is a little stale
and requires merging to post-KSEIII world - actually, the merging itself
is done but it needs to be unbroken.

Right now, I decided to dedicate more time to helping get -CURRENT
stabilized for 5.0 instead of adding Yet Another New Feature rush-rush
for 5.0.  While lightweight interrupts are a really good thing for i386,
and I do plan to finish this after 5.0 is released, I (and others) need
to look at things realistically right now and focus more on knocking
the bugs out of what we already have (KSEIII, TrustedBSD, pmap, etc.)
in time for 5.0, as well as getting performance back to sane levels
with what we already have.

I have the code, it needs fixing but has worked before and has been
discussed at the last Devel. Summit; this is now a post-5.0 feature.
