According to section 12.1 of debian policy [0]:
Each program, utility, and function should have an associated manual
page included in the same package. It is suggested that all
configuration files also have a manual page included as well. Manual
pages for protocols and other auxiliary things are optional.
Please provide a manual for this!
meebey suggests that some basic outlines of documentation can be found
at [1].
I still want a manpage :)
