Καθώς ενημερώνω το άρθρο `releng' για την Αγγλική έκδοση 1.81 είδα ότι
στο Ελληνικό άρθρο έχουμε γράψει, στα περισσότερα μέρη που αναφέρεται η
λέξη, &os; αντί για 'FreeBSD'. Το παρακάτω patch κάνει την ίδια αλλαγή
στο Αγγλικό άρθρο.
Από ένα σύντομο build που έκανα δε βλέπω να έχει πρόβλημα. Σας φαίνεται
εντάξει για το CVS;
