>Description:
Early in the preface, the handbook introduction is described as:
 "Introduces FreeBSD to a new user. It describes the history of the
  FreeBSD Project, the goals, development model, and everything they've
  done for the FreeBSD project."

As far as I can tell, the introduction of the handbook describes all of those things, except what the FreeBSD Project has done for the FreeBSD Project. So my fix just removes:
 "and everything they've done for the FreeBSD project"
and cleans up the remaining text.

Also, if you are handling this ceri, notice that I was able to get rid of a contraction with this fix as well. :-)

<   the FreeBSD Project, the goals, development model, and everything else <   they've done for the FreeBSD project.</para>
