cfb229df07 Prepare to have the 9.1-RELEASE schedule appear on the Web. Since this
is my first pass at adding stuff in the new SVN world I'm not hooking
this up to the build yet.  I'll wait a day or two to see if anybody notices
something wrong before I hook it up to the build.

1297aa5819 Fix the script that generates the multimedia files on the website when
parsing "overview" URLs consisting of multiple parts - for example a URL
containing an "&amp;".  Due to what appears to have been a copy/paste
error, these URLs would be broken in the rendered output.

This is the root cause of the invalid rendering of the link in the third
URL added in r38972, that commit itself was correct.

51e60e4791 The description about installing the system sources are no longer
accurate in newer FreeBSD versions, since sysinstall is not there
anymore. Therefore, provide a more general way that fits both
cases by refering to the section in the handbook about synching
the system sources.

functionality of the Flash plugin within Firefox.  I do not know when
this changed, nor what changed (i.e., if this is a Firefox change or
not).
