6f509bd6b3 Take "archive errata file" off the 4.6-RELEASE schedule...it only 
applies to my (unofficial) RELNOTESng snapshot site.  We also
don't need another reference to "The Twelve Days of Code Freeze"
(I'll try to write another filk before the next code-freeze).

7a15d30d48 When I originally added these files I chose a very poor place for them 
based on where the NetBSD developer's put their release engineering
documents.  It's very clear that this information is not specific for
comitters, but is of general interest to our -STABLE users, and as
such it has been moved to more user-visible areas of our web site.

These files now simply provide pointers to the new locations.

65f128c252 Archive the 4.5 release schedule. This was previously in 
internal/releng45.sgml, but that was a very bad place for it, since
people were posting the URL to public mailing lists which seems to
contradict the 'internal' part of the namespace.
