The introduction uses wording mostly copied from the web site to
maintain consistency within the project, and the usage of the term
"IWAD" is greatly reduced. I still define it, but only so that
someone might become familiar with the term when other people use it,
rather than as a primary term. Like wise, "port" and "source port"
are largely replaced with "engine," but while defining the former so a
newbie can understand what community members are speaking of.
"How to play" has some additional information about how to actually
get an engine to play the game. It was previously lacking. Odamex is
the only port actually outright named as a recommendation, but I try
to keep from sounding like it's the _only_ choice.
The "general rules" to follow has been reduced from four to three, the
first one heavily rewriting so as to not imply that derived works are
completely forbidden.
The "Using Git" section also had a major reworking. I don't really
like the section entirely myself. Either needs more revisement or
ejected entirely.
Quite a few linguistic tweaks in all of the sections.
Game names are more consistently italicized.
These were added in 2015-07-04T00:10:46Z!cancer_kaoru@live.com under
the assumption that raymoohawk had created them, but that was
mistaken. I'm normally hesitant about accepting submissions without
anything more than an online alias, but the original author has been
in contact and I'll let this one slide.

This was originally created by Da Werecat, but changed around to fit
the Freedoom theme better, and be internally consistent with the font
by Mechadon.

Git is not within the reach of most contributors, so let's
de-emphasize its importance. It would be nice if more people
submitted things via pull requests, but it's a fact-of-life for
Freedoom committing to be done by more technically-minded people
(typically its maintainers). Point instead to the forums, issue
tracker, and file sharing sites as the common and accepted means of
submitting work.
[[Committer note: There were two versions on display in the thread for
the submission of these resources. As Daniel is not actually using
Git himself, I made the mistaske of using the first version he posted,
along with the template for the second version.]]
