7408b262df Add an article about using FreeBSD on laptops. This document aims to 
be a quick HOWTO for the various issues likely to be interesting for
laptop users; such as power management, winmodems, XFree86 on laptop
hardware, etc..

This is just a start, and there is plenty of room for improvement.

PR includes a patch suitable for committing.  I don't think this is
the best place to put something like this, but it's better than
nothing.

aec10572d4 Combine parts of Chapter 21 and Appendix D from the FreeBSD Handbook 
into a separate 'Contributors' article so that everything is in one
place.  This was done for various reasons :

  * This information is way out of scope for the Handbook.

  * When we talk about "Contributors" to FreeBSD or developed by "A
    large team of individuals" on the web site we can point the user
    to a complete document on our web page rather than two separate
    chapters in the Handbook.

  * We can create a plain-text 'CREDITS' file from this SGML and put
    it in /usr/share/misc or similar for all FreeBSD installs if that
    is desired.
