Building gnomeweb-wml on OpenBSD and README



Hi,

I could build the module gnomeweb-wml with the tools provided and with
the description given on Ubuntu. But on OpenBSD some things work
differently. So the README maybe should state which operating system it
requires to make the GNOME website. I would have guessed that it works
on all Unix systems.

Also the README files still suggest to use CVS. I have attached a patch
that fixes some obvious errors, but still I think the README needs a
clean up (about bonsai, etc.). Please tell me if this patch is ok.

Regards,
Thilo
