If you're soliciting votes, Dave, I would vote to include them with the source. If size is a concern (I don't think it should be - man pages compress well), they could be kept in a separate .tgz archive that wouldn't have to be updated for each new source release; lots of open source distributions are set up that way.
Brian, I would assume you intend to add a Makefile as well, for converting to .html and/or other formats (using 'man2html', etc.).

Wow! Is that ever impressive.
I don't think that I will have time to read through all of it for proof reading, but hopefully others will be able to.
It strikes me that the size of all of this might be considerable. It is probably best to just have it available on the web rather than having it ride along with the LiS distribution.
Do you have some ideas on this?
I also really like the system diagrams with links into documentation.

All,
I have put up a preliminary cut of some Manual Pages for LiS. These pages can be viewed currently on the web but will be released in groff source once they have been inspected a bit more. Then I will contribute them to the LiS release to accompany the source.
To start, look at the bottom of the page at:
http://www.openss7.org/manpages.html
Or start with the head LiS man page at:
http://www.openss7.org/man/man2html?9+LiS
If you see any places whre I am out to lunch or just plain mistaken in these pages, don't hesitate to send me mail. It was my hope that these would grow into a good set of documentation for LiS and related software. Comments are welcomed.
