Sorry i didn't mention it has already been discussed for upgrade46.html:

http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=125696072511365&w=2

Nick then said:

"Slapping a "sudo" in front
of everything they contribute to the FAQ is some people's style,
but not mine.  And yes, the # in front is really annoying, since
much of upgrade46.html (including that line) is intended to be
copy/pasted.  This is not true of most of the rest of the FAQ, where
I generally DON'T want people to copy/paste blindly and ignorantly."

reading upgrade47.html for the first time, i thought it must be a sort
of copy/paste error and that I should mention it again. By the way
maybe there is a better way to mention those kind of problem than
posting on misc?
