Can I just get my vote in (even though my non-membership of the ntpd development community puts me into the whiner-not-worker category)? I really hate being sent from left to right in search of documentation. This includes stub man pages pointing me at html or info pages. Ideally I'd want to be able to select the documentation format on a system I'm responsible for myself (i.e. as a policy decision on my end). This issue also goes beyond the mere format of the documentation, even in case I am forced to accept multiple document formats. Searching the documentation installed on a system gets more difficult in this case. For example, the apropos tool won't search anything but man pages.
