Hello Joel,

seems that there is quite some redundant and inconsistent information.
About a year back there had been quite some mess with the versions and
not all files had been from the same version. For example the USB-Stack
had another version as the Ethernet stack.

In preparation to the WiFi work we had some big updates and reached a
consistent version for all files (at least I hope it's all files). The
simplest way to find a reliable version is to take a look at the git log
of freebsd-org. That is currently the FreeBSD commit
642b174daddbd0efd9bb5f242c43f4ab4db6869f which is from 2017-04-04. So
CONTRIBUTING.md is correct.

Regards

Christian
