- <h2>Policy</h2>
-
- <p>When listing countries or other geographic areas in
- documentation, menus, mirror/FTP lists, or other contexts, it is
- important to introduce such lists as "Countries or Regions" so that
- an implied sovereignty claim is neither made nor denied to those
- regions which have their own top level domains.</p>
-
- <p>The ISO 3166 country codes do not necessarily refer to
- nation-states (e.g. Hong Kong) and should not be treated as such.
- Likewise the "official" ISO 3166 short English names for those
- countries and regions which have top level domains are in some cases
- controversial, and not all of them are commonly used in the software
- industry.</p>
-
- <p>We follow the guidelines used by IBM, Microsoft, Google, and
- other prominent software companies in their documentation in that
- Taiwan should never be included with a distinction referring to the
- Republic of China, People's Republic of China, or a national flag.
- Interpretation of the word "Taiwan" is in the eye of the beholder,
- and The FreeBSD Project does not endorse any particular position.</p>

+ <h2>Policy</h2>
+ <p>The FreeBSD Project uses ISO 3166 country codes in
+ software included in the release distributions and the
+ official website to describe geographical regions in the
+ world.</p>
