There seem to be an AWFUL lot of changes in there that do not appear to have
anything to do with clarifying who has write access to the main CVS.  In
fact, there are so many changes, I couldn't see what the visual change would
be!

Many of the changes seem to be changing between relative and absolute
pathname, some are attributes reordered on elements, some are changes to the
capitalization of elements.  Have you used some sort of "smart" HTML editor
that has reformatted the HTML under your feet?  Alternatively, have you made
your change to an old version of the text and Rene (or somebody) has tidied
things up since?
