This change adds much more information about syslogd and newsyslog
than we had before in the configuration chapter. It describes how
the system logger can be configured, the rationale behind it and
the most important field that the user should edit.

It is still 2015, not 2016 yet.
eadler merged the contributing-ports article into the contributing article

On behalf of the Release Engineering Team, thank you, Ken,
for your time and contributions to the team.
Ken has been a member of the Release Engineering Team since
the 4.x days, and it is of great personal sadness to see him
leave.
My hat is off to you, and all you have done for the FreeBSD
Project, and I hope you will re-join the team someday.
- remove the TODO pages for the creation of the 2nd and 3rd
edition of the FreeBSD handbook. Both projects have been
completed and the TODO pages are not useful except for some
historical archeology. For this use case, VCS and archived
copies of old pages are sufficient.
- remove Latvian list, which does not exist on referenced page
- remove French list, which does not exist on referenced page
- remove duplicate Brazilian Portuguese
- etc.
On the (manually maintained!) sitemap make a number of changes
- remove references to now deleted inetnet.html pages
- remove some old references to features.html which was
rewritten by allan jude
- remove reference to c99 and bigdisk projects
This page is not salvageable without rewriting it:
- referring to the 4.4 BSD stack as a 'reference'
- the newest FreeBSD version is 7.0 including (broken)
SCTP support
- using outdated terms like "world wide web"
- support for 'Appletalk' and Novell client/server networking
are no longer the makings of a 'true intranet solution'
- running a usenet server is not the goal of most users anymore
- dial-on-demand PPP is not the prime of internet connectivity
- ftp.cdrom.com has not existed in a long time (and 30TB/mo
isn't very high nowadays)
- yahoo runs "ultimate index of the Internet"...
- the only testimonial was written in 1996
- and more :\
If such a page should exist, the content needs to be written.
- www/ is the old repo for doc/*/htdocs so don't mention it anymore
- explicitly mention using igor for both docbook and man pages
- use <package> rather than command for manck
