2e07ac4645 Remove redundant and outdated information from the "Who's Who" section.
There's some useful stuff left in this section still, but we should
seriously consider removing it altogether and moving the important
bits somewhere else, since maintaining redundant information like
this isn't really constructive work.

179b5db8d8 - A ports freeze is not a ports lock for tagging, so it takes
a bit more than "an hour or two".
- The explenation of what needs approval and what not, during
  a freeze was ambiguous, so clarify that all patches need
  approval during a freeze.
While here:
- Add some links to the Portmgr Quality Assurance page.
- Use "the ports management team" instead of "the ports
  manager" as we're more than one person and have been
  for quite a while.

22d00e050e Add a tip about the -F option of `cvs commit' that can be used to
speed up commits, avoid locking parts of the CVS tree for a very
long time and lets the committer take his time when writing the
commit message.

Hopefully, this way the quality of commit messages is easier to
control and we'll save ourselves some of the problems that can
result from hickups of the CVS repo-locking mechanism.
