First off, thanks for providing the feedback and testing! Seeing 
manufacturers contribute is a blessing to anyone following the project.

Second, while src committers (those that are supposed to monitor 
current@) have the ability to modify man pages it is generally felt that 
is one of the tasks of the Documentation project team. All requests for 
documentation changes are asked to be sent to doc at freebsd.org mailing 
list. However, they are more than welcome to be CC'd here as well if 
it's something like an RFC!

Doc. Project is at http://www.freebsd.org/docproj/docproj.html

PS I CC'd doc@ so don't worry about sending another one. Thanks again.
