I've noticed that the User Group list on the support page of our Web
site <http://www.freebsd.org/support.html#user>; now lists the
locations of user groups in a blue font.

This is a bad idea because:
- Blue text is usually associated with hyperlinks. Users might be
confused.
- We're displaying the meaning of the page using colour only. This
violates even the most lax of accessibility guidelines.

Therefore, I propose that we use a <DL> to list User Groups, with a
<DT> for the geographical location (replacing the <FONT
COLOR="blue">) and <DD> for the rest of the text.

If anyone can think of a good reason why we shouldn't go ahead with
this, please let me know. If I receive no objections, I'll commit
this change in the next week or so.

Regards,
Tom
