de33f84772 Split the "Obtaining FreeBSD" appendix into four sections, for
CD-ROM, FTP, CTM, and CVSup.  Adjust cross-references accordingly.
Add a list of CVSup mirror sites, and reference it from the CVSup
tutorial.

Also, fix a spelling error in the porting document.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

2ebb066ad2 Be consistent about the codebase we originated from. Always use
"4.4BSD-Lite" (not "4.4 BSD Lite", "BSD 4.4-lite" or some such), this
is what the CSRG people call their release in the red daemon book (and
most of the handbook had it that way).

09d44b1ef5 (This really shouldn't all be on one commit, but I forgot
I was in the middle of one of these "projects" when I started
on the next, so they wound up all intermixed)

Move the mailing list entities from authors.sgml to the new file
lists.sgml.  Add an entity for majordomo at the same time.

Avoid the use of contractions.  This revealed some grammer problems,
and also has the benefit of helping make things clearer for those people
who do make speak English as a their first language.

239d617128 Add definitions for the various freebsd-* mailing lists so that
we are consistent in how they are referenced in the handbook, and
so that they are now all clickable URLs.  E.g. no more mis-matched
freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org and hackers@freebsd.org.  They are used
just like the individual mail addresses defined in authors.sgml.
E.g. &a.doc will expand to:

FreeBSD documentation project mailing list <freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG>

Be consistent in using the FreeBSD.ORG address.  All references
to freebsd.org were changed to FreeBSD.ORG.

Use pre-defined addresses for some individuals where available.
