Will your opinion text also recommend to the PAC that they delete all
the admin guides, user guides, and all other docs other than the man
pages from the Solaris documentation and docs.sun.com because they are
multiple copies of the same information?
This is the cost of having human users - it's often more usable to provide
the same information in multiple ways, and the cost is that we need to
remember to update all of them when modifying the software.
