v.popolitov Translation changed Documentation / books/handbook/preface/_index — Russian	English Several companies have supported the development of this document by paying authors to work on it full-time, paying for publication, etc. In particular, BSDi (subsequently acquired by http://www.windriver.com[Wind River Systems]) paid members of the FreeBSD Documentation Project to work on improving this book full time leading up to the publication of the first printed edition in March 2000 (ISBN 1-57176-241-8). Wind River Systems then paid several additional authors to make a number of improvements to the print-output infrastructure and to add additional chapters to the text. This work culminated in the publication of the second printed edition in November 2001 (ISBN 1-57176-303-1). In 2003-2004, FreeBSD Mall Inc. paid several contributors to improve the Handbook in preparation for the third printed edition. The third printed edition has been split into two volumes. Both volumes have been published as The FreeBSD Handbook 3rd Edition Volume 1: User Guide (ISBN 1-57176-327-9) and The FreeBSD Handbook 3rd Edition Volume 2: Administrators Guide (ISBN 1-57176-328-7). Russian 28 characters edited Current translation Translated Несколько компаний поддержали разработку этого документа, оплачивая работу авторов на полную ставку, финансируя публикацию и т.д. В частности, BSDi (позже приобретенная http://www.windriver.com[Wind River Systems]) оплачивала членам FreeBSD Documentation Project работу над улучшением этой книги на полной ставке вплоть до публикации первого печатного издания в марте 2000 года (ISBN 1-57176-241-8). Затем Wind River Systems оплатила работу нескольких дополнительных авторов для внесения ряда улучшений в инфраструктуру печатного вывода и добавления новых глав к тексту. Эта работа завершилась публикацией второго печатного издания в ноябре 2001 года (ISBN 1-57176-303-1). В 2003-2004 годах ~~http://www.freebsdmall.com[~~FreeBSD Mall, Inc] оплатила работу нескольких участников над улучшением Руководства в рамках подготовки к третьему печатному изданию. Третье печатное издание было разделено на два тома. Оба тома были опубликованы как The FreeBSD Handbook 3rd Edition Volume 1: User Guide (ISBN 1-57176-327-9) и The FreeBSD Handbook 3rd Edition Volume 2: Administrators Guide (ISBN 1-57176-328-7). 18 hours ago
