Apparently, igor does not like the occurance of the second <para> in the
<para><note><para> sequence in the abstract. Replacing it with something else
makes the file not pass the DTD checks. Err on the side of letting the file
compile, leaving a couple of igor checks unresolved.
Overall, the docbook xml source in this file should be much cleaner now.
In particular, a lot of spaces were replaced by tabs, indentations were
corrected, two spaces after a setence stop were added, and titles where
capitalized when needed.
I've kept the "redundant markup and words" and contraction errors as they
were, in order not to change the historical text and the original author's
words.
The claim that there were no "substantive" commits to this
article are made without any knowledge of internals of re@.
Several parts of the removed content is still relevant for
8.x, which we do still support.
Furthermore, this particular article, outdated or not, falls
under RE territory, and these drive-by commits were not
approved.
Approved by: re (implicit)
- since my previous cleanup passes removed some contents, it is now
possible to remove even more contents!
- remove some footnotes that refer to the same article the text they
footnote link to.
There is a two year old warning that this document is partly outdated
and that re@ is working on updating it.
I don't see many substantive commits updating this doc, so just do a
drive-by and remove the obviously wrong and outdated things.
the article can use some additional work from someone more clueful about
the current re@ process.
- remove sysinstall references

- sysinstall has been replaced (and so scripting it is meaningless)
- cross building is possible
- drop support for disk2 and on
- remove empty sections, such as the one on cd-rom replication
- remove article about releng packages
- we no longer produce multi-cd releases
- CVS is not our VCS system
- we havn't releaseed with xfree86 is years
- section 1 about the 'ports cluster' is now entirely untrue and
been disclaimed by portmgr
Discussed with: peter, bdrewery, Daniel O'Connor
- Explicitly note 'doc/head/' is the parent path for the
website files.
- Update paths that have not been updated since the conversion
to subversion.
- Remove files that no longer exist.
The primary purposes are to clean up duplicated author definitions in
both share/xml/authors.ent and share/xml/developers.ent, and as a added
bonus simplify writing up author names/email addresses in web pages.
Apart from merging developers.ent into authors.ent, removing the former,
and updating the Committers Guide there should be little user-visible changes:
- a.portmgr renamed to a.portmgr.members
- a.doceng renamed to a.doceng.members
- team.re renamed to a.re.members.email and moved from
share/xml/freebsd.ent to share/xml/authors.ent
- a.core updated and moved from share/xml/mailing-lists.ent to
share/xml/teams.ent
- share/pgpkeys/{addkey.sh|README} updated
Translations are untouched except for build fixes.

Bring the description of the release process closer to the actual
procedures followed by the re.
