Nik Clayton 60dfe245a4 Whitespace clean up only, to make it clearer to see how the files are laid 
out, and spot inconsistencies.

By God that was painful.  And I'm not finished yet -- this commit just gets
the files into a semblence of order.  Now I have to go through them
excising all the dodgy HTML practices, and doing a consistency check.

Argh!

Translators, you can ignore this commit.

<h2>Additional Resources</h2>
<p>www.FreeBSD.org is not the only place to get information on FreeBSD and
various independent efforts have also produced a great deal of useful
information on FreeBSD:</p>
<ul>
<li><p><a href="mailto:mckusick@mckusick.com">Kirk McKusick</a>, one
of the original architects of BSD at U.C. Berkeley, teaches two <a
href="http://www.mckusick.com/courses/">4.4BSD Kernel
Internals</a> courses using FreeBSD. For those unable to attend
the courses in person, a video tape series is also now
available.</p></li>
<li><p>The <a
href="http://dmoz.org/Computers/Operating_Systems/Unix/FreeBSD/">Open
Directory Project</a> offers an excellent selection of links for
FreeBSD, including a list of <a
href="http://dmoz.org/Computers/Operating_Systems/Unix/FreeBSD/Prominent_Users/">prominent
users</a> which can be helpful for marketing purposes.</p></li>
<li><p><a href="http://www.computerbits.com/">Computer Bits</a>, an
Internet online magazine, has, since March 1996, been running an
excellent series of FreeBSD related articles in their column titled
<strong>The Network Community</strong>, by <a
href="mailto:tedm@agora.rdrop.com">Ted Mittelstaedt</a>.<br>
These articles cover everything from setting up <a
href="http://www.computerbits.com/archive/9603/lan9603.htm">a
FreeBSD based mail server</a> to doing <a
href="http://www.computerbits.com/archive/9708/lan9708.htm">Network
Address Translation</a> for other hosts.</p></li>
<li><p><a href="http://www.vmunix.com/fbsd-book/">A Comprehensive Guide
to FreeBSD</a> - an attempt at a more readable, "book-like"
tutorial explaining the FreeBSD Operating System. Intended for
people new to both FreeBSD and UNIX. Currently a work in
progress.</p></li>
<li><p><a href="http://flag.blackened.net/freebsd/">FreeBSD How-To's for
the Lazy and Hopeless</a> is another somewhat more light-hearted
attempt to provide more readable "how-to" style information on
setting up and configuring FreeBSD.</p></li>
<li><p><a
href="http://sunsite.unc.edu/LDP/HOWTO/mini/Linux+FreeBSD-mini-HOWTO.html">The
Linux+FreeBSD mini-HOWTO</a> - this document describes how to use
Linux and FreeBSD on the same system. It introduces FreeBSD and
discusses how the two operating systems can cooperate, e.g. by
sharing swap space.</p>

</ul>
<a name="books"></a>
<h2><a href="handbook/bibliography.html">Books</a></h2>
<p>Online documentation is useful, but any serious FreeBSD user should
consider getting some of the books listed here. Most books that cover
BSD systems apply well to FreeBSD.</p>
