40ff5e8d3d - Revert the change applied in r1.12 as it didn't actually fix the
problem.  The proper solution is to use the freebsd.urls.absolute
  parameter entity, let's use it from now on.

3892fc8415 o Reword a bit in a couple of places, to avoid using 'necessary' and
'need' twice in the same sentence.

o   Replace <literal> tags with <emphasis> for `tag', `port' and
    `package' (they are really used as FreeBSD-specific terms, not as
    <literal> text here).

o   Expand a paragraph with inline URIs, which result in pretty awkward
    line breaks in PDF/PS output, to a <variablelist>.  This separates
    the URIs from the running text, and looks slightly prettier in print
    output.

02ef100bc0 Revert 1.5. The entries are not duplicates. The fact that they
differ in only one word is ok, but we may want to fix this in a
slightly different manner.

e01b784ea1 Add a new article, "How To Choose The Version Of FreeBSD That Is
Right For You."

This article attempts to provide an introduction to such concepts
as Releases, Branches, and STABLE vs. CURRENT, which are currently
scattered around between the FAQ, various Release Engineering documents,
and folklore on the mailing lists.

The material in the FAQ should probably be deleted and this used as
its replacement.  This material does not replace any of the Release
Engineering documentation, but it does attempt to discuss how the
concepts discussed in great detail therein should influence user
decisions on which version to install.  In particular, this article
attempts to inform users about the current thinking of the development
team in terms of how future releases are going to be done.

A companion article comparing e.g. 5.X vs 6.X would be useful but is
outside the scope of this commit.

This article is partially a response to the "Quality of FreeBSD" thread
on freebsd-stable in July 2005 (and its many antecedents).
