Yes. And while you're about it, include details of other companies
selling distributions of FreeBSD. I've certainly not had any commandments
from WC, or anyone else involved in the project to 'censor' the details
about other distributions -- as with a lot of things on FreeBSD, something's
not there because no one's felt the need to do it, not because of any
maliciousness on anyone's part.
Diffs to the raw SGML will get committed faster than plain text, just
because it's less work for me to do.

the links.
