Policy

+ +

When listing countries or other geographic areas in + documentation, menus, mirror/FTP lists, or other contexts, it is + important to introduce such lists as "Countries or Regions" so that + an implied sovereignty claim is neither made nor denied to those + regions which have their own top level domains.

+ +

The ISO 3361 country codes do not necessarily refer to + nation-states (e.g. Hong Kong) and should not be treated as such. + Likewise the "official" ISO 3361 short english names for those + countries and regions which have top level domains are in some cases + controversial, and not all of them are commonly used in the software + industry.

+ +

We follow the guidelines used by IBM, Microsoft, Google, and + other prominent software companies in their documentation in that + Taiwan should never be included with a distinction referring to the + Republic of China, People's Republic of China, or a national flag. + Interpretation of the word "Taiwan" is in the eye of the beholder, + and The FreeBSD Project does not endorse any particular position.

+ +

It contains almost everything a new committer to the FreeBSD Project needs to know. See the Documentation Project Primer and the Ports Guide, below, for more info.

General Policies

Here you will find various things such as the New Account Creation Procedure, the Commit Bit Expiration Policy, the Core Bylaws, Core's Voting Procedures, the Fortune File Policy, +Internationalization Policy, and the Problem Report Handling Guidelines.

The FreeBSD Documentation Project

The FreeBSD Documentation Project Primer for New Contributors covers everything you will need to know in order to start contributing to the FreeBSD Documentation Project, from the tools and software you will be using (both mandatory and recommended) to the philosophy behind the Documentation Project.

The FreeBSD Doceng Team Charter describes the purpose of Doceng.

The FreeBSD Ports Guidelines

The FreeBSD Porter's Handbook is a general guide for FreeBSD ports committers, including both technical information and policy guidelines.
