New Revision: 46392
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/doc/46392

Log:
  stop comparing to CVS
  
  Finish the job of r45149 and remove reference to now undocumented 'better
  features' of CVS.
  
  Remove note about difference between location of www repo between CVS
  and SVN: we switched long enough ago now that it doesn't matter.
  
  Remove additional comparisons to CVS which likely don't matter to committers
  anymore.
