and third - manuals. They are in sync with system and actually VERY 
useful.

while i was still (long time ago) using linux most common manual was like

"this manual is outdated. Use texinfo documentation". and texinfo docs was 
often outdated too.

Today it is most probably "look at wikipedia" ;)

Of course i means FreeBSD base system, ports are not part of FreeBSD and 
quality varies.
