It's not huge but the contribution section of the FreeBSD page says to suggest any mistakes no matter how small. Sorry if I have not gone about this in the correct way. In the project model handbook: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/dev-model/book.html There is a very slight typo in paragraph 1 of chapter 1. It reads /"A project model is a means to reduce the communications overhead in a project. As shown by [Brooks, 1995 ], increasing the number of project participants increases the communication in the project exponentionally. FreeBSD has during the past few year increased both its mass of active users and committers, and the communication in the project has risen accordingly. This project model will serve to reduce this overhead by providing an up-to-date description of the project."/ The third sentence /"FreeBSD has during the past few year"/ should most likely read "FreeBSD has during the past few years". Once again, my apologies if I did this the wrong way. Cheers, Rohan
