Generally looked much better.

The patch was kinda mangled as Tom mentioned so the comments are less
useful than they might be.

You had several contractions which I thought we were trying to get rid
of.  e.g. "Here's a list of ..."

For the list of machines available in the main FreeBSD cluster the
purposes and owners are a bit out of date.  freefall is not the
CVS master repository any more, a machine named 'repoman' is.
freefall can best be described as a generic shell machine.  ncvsup
and ocvsup are both owned by kuriyama now.  ftp-master is owned by
peter and kuriyama.  For mx1/mx2 the owner is dhw/peter now, in general
dhw is postmaster.

Thanks. :-)
