With mostly fine man pages and some papers, some of them not quite up to date, with the potential of putting even more material in there. I’m mostly talking about the framework around it, the “Programmer’s Manual” part, the title page and ToC, the notion of one manual. And that, we already have (see tcp!9p.zone!9991 /humm/print.pdf). If we do want to keep that, we could also migrate stuff from the FQA there or merge them completely or do whatever else with it. -- Humm
