freebsd-update-server article: Note to translators
Hello to all, It would be great if r41161 could be merged into other languagues, as it is currently broken documentation (links) if not merged. The broken links are a direct result of not being able to carry out any subsequent steps in the article to build your own update server. I have fixed this in English, so please ping me with any questions you may have.

There could be more, but I didn't read the entire GNOME porting handbook.
On a side note, it may be worth some effort to merge this into the Porters

java documentation
Hello All, Over time I have sent in patches to documentation for java updates, however there have been far more updates to the software then there is keeping the documentation up-to-date. That being said, are there any efforts into updating the documentation noted here: http://www.freebsd.org/java/dists/16.html http://www.freebsd.org/java/dists/17.html If so, that is great, and look forward to any commits to add any more relevant content. If this isn't the case, and it is more of an effort to be updated, is it possible we can explore other directions for content in this location, or removal of the pages, or another option?

[RFC] freebsd-update-server article update
Hello All, Attached is a patch that introduces a number of updates to my article on how to create your own FreeBSD Update Server. Part of this update will also allow users to build update servers, as the code for the freebsd-update-server was in the projects repository in CVS that is no-longer available. The changes are as follows: * Add copyright for 2013 * Point users to new source of software. (location name and source have changed). * cvs -> svn * freebsd-update-server -> freebsd-update-build * Add instructions how to get software, as download via tarball is no-longer an option. * Role change for Security Officer * Drop tip for rst packets as this is no longer an issues with all supported versions of FreeBSD. * Drop two tip comments as they have been merged into document. (one previously, and one for this diff) Any comments, suggestions and feedback are welcome. My documentation skills are not the greatest, so pardon any whitespace or placement issues and feel free to slap me with an editorial fish!
