Happy New Year!
At long last, I want to let you know that a new batch of the
manual pages missing from Debian is now available. As a reminder,
here is a list of the manual pages included in this distribution:
e2pall.1 mkfontdesc.8 outocp.1 texexec.1
fmtutil.8 mkindex.1 ovf2ovp.1 texi2pdf.1
fmtutil.cnf.5 mkocp.1 ovp2ovf.1 texlinks.8
fontinst.1 mkofm.1 pslatex.1 texshow.1
kpsepath.1 ofm2opl.1 rubibtex.1 texutil.1
kpsetool.1 opl2ofm.1 rumakeindex.1 thumbpdf.1
kpsexpand.1 otp2ocp.1 texdoc.1 ttf2afm.1
Links to HTML versions (for quick review) are available from
<http://www.eskimo.com/~c/debian/tetex-manpages/>. You can also
download tar files containing the Yodl or *roff format files (I
wrote the pages using Yodl, then converted them to HTML and *roff
format).
Major changes to the sources include
* Moving from appearance-based to structural markup (via new
Yodl macros)
* Addition of information about authorship and bug-reporting
from responses to the initial release
* Creation of a Makefile to simplify production of troff and
HTML manual pages
* Major rewrites of the ConTeXt manpages, based on drafts from
Tobius Burnus <burnus@gmx.de>
* New manpage for fmtutil.cnf.5
I believe that these manual pages are ready for inclusion in
Debian or in the upstream teTeX sources (as well as ConTeXt,
Omega, and other ``components'' of teTeX). Please take a look at
them and let me know about any showstoppers. Once everyone's
happy, let's get 'em into the distribution!

Behind the counter a boy with a shaven head stared vacantly into space,
a dozen spikes of microsoft protruding from the socket behind his ear.
