What does "Solaris Command" mean here?  Will this tool search all the
bin directories, such as /usr/gnu/bin, not just /bin?

Do you mean that plural of 'languages'?  (I.e., if I read N languages I
can review the docs in all N languages without switching locales?)  If
so, I commend you!

I think you'll want a different adjective than "classified" -- that
makes one think of labeling, not categorization.  Try "categorized."

What about GNU info docs?  Can new doc types be added to the service
without modifying the client?

Can this service run on the localhost?  If so, does it meet the secure
by default policies?  If not, I assume authentication and session
security are not important for this service, as it serves generally
available information.

Also, if not on localhost, will this service support indexing all
manpages in the various OpenSolaris package repositories?

My impression is that it does not run on localhost and there's no option
for it (which is fine).
