System: FreeBSD q.internal.closedsrc.org 5.2.1-RELEASE-p8 FreeBSD 5.2.1-RELEASE-p8 #2: Sat Jun 5 19:22:58 PDT 2004 question at q.internal.closedsrc.org:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/Q i386
>Description:
In the "Introduction and Background" section of the article, ia64 needs to
be replaced with the more common IA-64 where IA-64 is mentioned as an
architecture and not a platform port.

Also the dates listed in the "Schedule" section do not seem to line up with
the dates provided by the releng pages. 5.3-RC2 is not listed in the
releng release process, so I left it commented out until a date has been
decided upon or if RC2 is even needed.

Not sure if the dates in the patch are exact or not.
