a0dc93d3a5 Replace Obersturmbahnfuhrer with "Meister" -- someone who has earned an 
official degree in craftmanship (which is required to allow teaching the
profession to others).  There are overtones with "Obersturmbahnfuhrer"
that we should avoid.

d135bff76f Back out rev 1.57. It wasn't clear to me what was being said in rev 1.56. 
Hopefully the header "Commit log" will bet tweaked to not give the
impression the example is supose to be a complete log message and thus
the text is an example of a good commit message.

86b72726db Add a new rule to the committers: respect other contributors as well. 
There has been plenty of discussion about how to actually ratify
such rules, but nobody has opposed this specific rule (which is a
good show of maturity btw).

In the end the conclusion is that this is not really any different from
the rest of the tree: If it makes sense: commit it, if it creats an
uproar, back it out and paint the bikeshed.

QED.

d3d532c64f * RCS Date string in <date> 
* Add year to <copyright>

 * Explain how you can use CVSup to download the PR database, and then
   teach a local copy of GNATS about the files you've installed, to make
   it easier to query them without being online all the time.

   Prompted by Warner's query on -committers last month.  Doing this is
   actually fairly trivial, but I figure a lot of you'll benefit from it.

 * Change some &prompt.user; to &prompt.root; (as far as I can see, you
   need to run the commands as root).

 * Update a link to point to the Porter's Handbook.
