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.

626af959b9 Updated some URL's for Digi International products so you can
actually follow the links, and change references from DigiBoard
to Digi International (I'm currently working for Digi, and we were
just asked to do the same thing with everything we are working
on when possible, so I figured I might as well do the same under FreeBSD).

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!)
