Hi,
In conjunction with core@ I've been working on a privacy policy for
the FreeBSD website. The lack of a privacy policy has long been a
showstopper in adding better stat tracking software (such as Google
Analytics) to the website. This is a call for review on the *sgml* of
the text. Please report any errors or problems you find that might
prevent this from being committed.
If you have concerns about the *content* of the policy I ask that you
please reply to me directly (and not to the mailing list) in order to
avoid possible flamewars.
Thank you gjb@ for rewriting my full page HTML into usable SGML !
Attached is the document. What follows is a patch to the Makefile

<h2>How the information collected is used:</h2>

of our site and welcome any feedback about these linked sites
(including if a specific link does not work).</p>
