FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms.
A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years.
Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
README: Reduce the textdump; describe the project Rework the README to make it a little easier for new users. This is the first file many will see when persuing the FreeBSD source code so - remove some of the text describes how to build. This is better covered in the linked documentation. - add a small blurb for what FreeBSD is. Some users might find this document through features such as github search so they may not even know what the project is generally, gear this file for the new, accidental, or casual user rather than towards someone seeking fuller documentation.

Create sys/README.md Add this primarily to document the sys/ subdirectories of the source tree. This is a straight copy from the contents of hier(7). Improvements will follow in other changes.

hier(7): remove text describing /usr/src layout It poses a maintenance burden, since much of the information is duplicated in the src tree's README.md file. Readers who are interested enough in learning about the structure of the src tree can download it, or browse the README online. Have hier(7) just point them there instead.
