New Revision: 41107
URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/doc/41107

Log:
  Remove the suggestion that we export the src and ports trees to CVS
  still - it's only partially true for src and no longer true for ports.
  
  I initially reworded it to add the history here, but eventually
  settled on simply removing the paragraph entirely as the extra
  detail is no longer necessary, and certainly not necessary in what
  is supposed to be a brief introduction to FreeBSD.
