b37985c476 (This really shouldn't all be on one commit, but I forgot
I was in the middle of one of these "projects" when I started
on the next, so they wound up all intermixed)

Move the mailing list entities from authors.sgml to the new file
lists.sgml.  Add an entity for majordomo at the same time.

Avoid the use of contractions.  This revealed some grammer problems,
and also has the benefit of helping make things clearer for those people
who do make speak English as a their first language.

f6d864bf47 Add definitions for the various freebsd-* mailing lists so that
we are consistent in how they are referenced in the handbook, and
so that they are now all clickable URLs.  E.g. no more mis-matched
freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org and hackers@freebsd.org.  They are used
just like the individual mail addresses defined in authors.sgml.
E.g. &a.doc will expand to:

FreeBSD documentation project mailing list <freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG>

Be consistent in using the FreeBSD.ORG address.  All references
to freebsd.org were changed to FreeBSD.ORG.

Use pre-defined addresses for some individuals where available.

a7967d25c7 Add a new donor's section to give credit to those who have donated
equipment or funding to the project.  This is still embryonic and
will no doubt grow as I track down more of our donors.

49ef15c87a Fix a variety of bogons.
Remember:
`&' is a magic character, use &amp;
`$' is a magic character (but shouldn't be), use &dollar;
use ``...'' instead of "..."

f56c1a6397 Two new sections:
* Kernel configuration, from Jake Hamby <jehamby@lightside.com>
    I'd like as many people as possible to give this one a good
    check before 2.1 goes out the door.

  * Routing, from Coranth Gryphon <gryphon@healer.com>

A bazillion formatting tweaks (only 13 bazillion more to go!)

396c73dcff Start populating the handbook with useful cross reference targets.
All cross reference labels start with name of the file that contains
them.  A label for the top section level is simply the name of the
file (omitting the .sgml).  Other references within the file append a
colon and onother name.  For example, the label on the mailing list
section in the file eresources.sgml is eresources:mail.  This gives
each file its own cross reference namespace.

an introduction.
