Hiroki Sato cfd9e12239 www cleanup mega commit:
- Move includes.nav*.sgml to share/sgml/navibar.ent and
   <lang>/share/sgml/nabibar.l10n.ent.

 - Move includes.sgml and includes.xsl to
   share/sgml/common.ent, share/sgml/header.ent, <lang>/share/sgml/l10n.ent,
   and <lang>?share/sgml/header.l10n.ent.

 - Move most of XSLT libraries to share/sgml/*.xsl and
   <lang>/share/sgml/*.xsl.

 - Move news.xml and other *.xml files for the similar purpose
   to share/sgml/*.xml and <lang>/share/sgml/*.xml.

 - Switch to use a custom DTD for HTML document.  Now we use
   "-//FreeBSD//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional-Based Extension", which is
   HTML 4.01 + some entities previously pulled via
   "<!ENTITY % includes SYSTEM "includes.sgml"> %includes;" line.
   The location of entity file will be resolved by using catalog file.

 - Add DOCTYPE declearation to XML documents.  This makes the followings
   possible:

   * Use of &foo; entities for SGML in an XML file instead of defining
     {$foo} as the same content.

   * &symbolic; entities for Latin characters.

 - Duplicated information between SGML and XML, or English and
   translated doc, has been removed as much as possible.

<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>Getting to grips with a new and complex operating system is always a
difficult task, no matter how pretty the GUI is. FreeBSD is no different
in this respect.</p>
<p>While there are a vast number of BSD Unix (and general &unix;) books
available, FreeBSD has its own unique features, procedures and
quirks.</p>
<p>In addition, FreeBSD will be the first exposure to a Unix-like
operating system for many of its users, so the availability of high
quality, accurate documentation is paramount.</p>
<p>The FreeBSD Documentation Project exists to help fill this gap. There
are two ways in which this is undertaken:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Members of the Documentation Project write documentation and
submit it for inclusion in the <em>FreeBSD Documentation
Set</em>.</p></li>
<li><p>Members of the Documentation Project discuss and arrange the
formatting and organization of the <em>FreeBSD Documentation
Set</em>.</p></li>
</ol>

<td><h2 align="center"><a href="current.html">Current
projects</a></h2>
<p>There are a number of projects currently <em>in progress</em> as
part of the documentation effort. Please take the time to look over
this list and see if there is anything <b>you</b> can help
with.</p></td>

<h2><a href="who.html">Who we are, how to join</a></h2>
<p>This page explains who makes up the Documentation Project, and how
you can join.</p>
<h2><a href="doc-set.html">The FreeBSD Documentation Set</a></h2>
<p>This page outlines the components of the FreeBSD Documentation Set, and
the sort of work that the Documentation Project does with them.</p>
<h2><a href="sgml.html">SGML and the Documentation Project</a></h2>
<p>The project uses SGML for the documentation. This page
outlines how this is accomplished, and directs the interested reader to
further SGML resources.</p>
<h2><a href="submitting.html">Submitting Documentation</a></h2>
<p>Submitting documentation is the best way to become a part of the
project, and help make FreeBSD easier to use. This page explains the
best way to submit documentation so that it gets looked at as soon as
possible.</p>
<h2><a href="translations.html">Translation</a></h2>
