Can you check the change with textproc/igor? I'm not sure about the tabs at the beginning of some of the lines that were changed.

I think there is a line break necessary here, it flows over the line too much.

Add line break and rewrap.

A style nit.

This xlink needs to be indented and all other lines after it until the closing </link>.

More info on proper link indentation. You're getting there...

You can also break overlong lines (where links are definitely too long for the current line like this:

visit the Foundation <link
 xlink:href="https://www.freebsdfoundation.org">web
 site</link>

Basic rule: if you are within an overlong tag (like the link above), then you need to further indent the line until the closing (</link>) tag. Then, the current level of indentation is used like before the opening (<link>) tag. Check the examples at the bottom of this page: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/docbook-markup-links.html

This address is no longer valid and bounces. Do you have any recommendation on what it should be changed to?
