stylesheets directly.
- Move share/xsl/* to share/xml and remove share/xsl.

Divide time in to <year>, <month>, and <day> elements, each of which

has a <name>.
|

each <day> element contains one or more <event> elements.

Each <event> contains an optional <title>, and then a <p>. <p> elements

can contain <a> anchors.

Use the <title> element if the <p> content is lengthy. When generating

synopses of this information (e.g., for syndication using RDF files),
|

the contents of <title> will be preferred over <p>.

<title>Official support for NVIDIA graphics cards on amd64
|
||
architecture</title>
|
||
|
||
<p>The NVIDIA Corporation releases an initial BETA version of
|
||
NVIDIA 195.22 &os; graphics drivers for both i386 and amd64
|
||
architectures. The drivers support recent versions of the
|
||
&os; operating system, i.e. 7.2-STABLE and 8.0-RELEASE and
|
||
provide support for features like SLI, improved
|
||
compatibility and performance, especially on systems with
|
||
4GB or more of RAM. This marks the first driver release for
|
||
amd64, as it was previously available only for i386
|
||
architecture. Please see the original <a
|
||
href="http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=142120">announcement</a>
|
||
for more information.</p>

<title>Portmgr reorganization</title>
|
||
|
||
<p>Portmgr is happy to announce that two new members will
|
||
join the team.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Martin Wilke has been one of our most active committers
|
||
since receiving his commit bit today 3 years ago. He has
|
||
been working in a number of subgroups including python,
|
||
ports-security and the KDE team.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Ion-Mihai Tetcu has been interested in regression testing
|
||
and qualitiy assurance, creating QAT automated tinderbox
|
||
testing of all port commits on a per-commit basis, and adding
|
||
on-the-fly feedback to the snapshot builds from the pointyhat
|
||
package cluster.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Unfortunately, we will also be saying goodbye to Kirill
|
||
Ponomarew, who hasn't had much time to spend on FreeBSD and
|
||
will be stepping down from portmgr.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>We thank Kirill for all his contributions in the past and
|
||
wish Martin and Ion-Mihai the best of luck with the new tasks
|
||
bestowed upon them.</p>

<title>Google Summer of Code Projects Announced</title>
|
||
|
||
<p>The FreeBSD Project again received many high quality
|
||
applications from students participating
|
||
in <a href="http://code.google.com/soc">Google's Summer of
|
||
Code</a> program. This year 20 student proposals were
|
||
accepted to work with the FreeBSD Project as part of this
|
||
program. For those with projects that were not accepted
|
||
this year, we'd like to note that the FreeBSD Project is
|
||
always willing to help mentor students so they can learn
|
||
more about operating system development through our normal
|
||
community mailing lists and development forums.</p>
|
||
|
