Additionally, they are available on the web at <not-yet-existing url>. If you are a committer wishing to add a note here, please do so at <path to sgml file>. If you are completely uncomfortable with SGML, please send a message to freebsd-doc@freebsd.org with your plain-text submission. This will help to keep the volume of "where are the relnotes" questions down. Perhaps this isn't so important on -current as it is on -stable (although the notice to committers helps; even today someone committed to the plain text files instead of the SGML ones (something about isdn)).
