Created attachment 167199 [details]
Diff of the current book.xml and a version with the link changed to bikeshed.com

The link to the bike shed email on the "Miscellaneous Questions" page, which points to a FreeBSD Hackers page, is dead. The relevant portions are still quoted on the page of course, but the actual link is dead.
I recommend linking instead to bikeshed.com, a site devoted to the analogy of the bike shed.
The page containing the dead link in question is /doc/head/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/book.xml.
