The netperf webpage has not been updated in quite some time. Most updates
regarding machine allocations are happening on the wiki nowadays. It does not
make sense to keep the information here, so remove the section and replace it
with a reference to the wiki instead.
The config and news section has also been largely left alone for years. Remove
it as well as it is unlikely that someone will be posting updates there any
time soon.

After discussing some updates to the PF chapter with current maintainer kp@,
I came up with the following list of changes in this patch:
- Change the warning message to remove the reference to a specific PF version
and point out that FreeBSDs pf has diverged from what's in OpenBSD.
- Remove a link to the old pf porting efforts, which is obsolete nowadays and
doesn't provide much value to the reader anymore
- Change the reading flow by putting the ALTQ section at the end of the chapter.
ALTQ with PF is not used by everyone, so having that at the end of the chapter
is good to not overwhelm the reader too much with concepts they probably don't
need.
- Remove the "In order to" sentence parts which are mostly superfluous and can
be replaced with "to" for increased readability
- Sprinkle in some sysrc in examples where it makes sense to use it

It is not immediately obvious to all users how to move the cursor around
the partitioning section in bsdinstall, and this kind of thing can put

The discussions with affected parties have concluded. It was determined
that more time is required for the community to adjust. Thus, there will
be no changes to the support model for STABLE/12. Any changes will apply
to STABLE/13.

- Remove mention of CARGO_GH_CARGOTOML after ports r496795
- Update CARGO_USE_GITHUB description. It does not patch Cargo.lock.
That is done automatically during the configure phase by cargo
itself and is not worth mentioning here.

This file had a lot of long lines in it as well as redundant markup with
words. A few capitalizations were also fixed, except a few where it would
obscure the original meaning like groff.
recreated.
If a build failure is triggered, such as a port Makefile
contains a non-ASCII apostrophe, the generated files are
not replaced if they exist (even if an error occurs).
In such a case, manual intervention would be needed to
remove the file(s) that would cause the build failure.

The summary of the license policy in the commiters guide is a good place

Previous versions of FreeBSD provided a standard /etc/pf.conf, but
that was removed without changing the documentation. Update the
handbook to mention it and point people to the directory
/usr/share/examples/pf/ where example firewall rules are available.

Subversion (svnlite) has always been Apache-licensed and LLVM
will be as well starting with version 9.0.0.
Note that core@ must still approve imports of new Apache-license
components in the tree as well as license changes to Apache ones.
