My current plan is to convert the few SGML man pages in SUNWonbld to nroff on the fly and install those to avoid having two different man page formats in a single package. Once the other man pages with nroff source have been converted to SGML, that can be revised. It may be worthwhile to consider what to do with the man pages in SUNWman, btw. For some time, they were delivered in SGML format, but later the package switched back to delivering the nroff form generated from that only. I think that was done because some of the necessary tools were not easily/publicly available, but I recall that this has changed/is changing in the Documentation community. But that's certainly much better to discuss on docs-discuss.
