 Yes, there is a plan to move man.netbsd.org onto www.netbsd.org, so
 automatically updating them should be simple.

 grant.

 As a related matter, I think it would be a good idea to keep the 
 "man.netbsd.org" hostname, and see if we can't make the URLs easy, 
 e.g.

 	http://man.netbsd.org/1.6.1/alpha/intro.4.html
 or
 	http://man.netbsd.org/1.6.1/alpha/intro.4.txt
 or
 	http://man.netbsd.org/1.6.1/alpha/4/intro.html
 or
 	http://man.netbsd.org/1.6.1/alpha/4/intro.txt

 and have the web server do the right thing.

 The URL syntax for man.netbsd.org:

     http://man.netbsd.org/man/page

 	Show the manual page for "page".

     http://man.netbsd.org/man/page+2

 	Show the manual page for "page(2)".

     http://man.netbsd.org/man/page+2.alpha

 	Show the manual page for "page(2)", arch "alpha".

     http://man.netbsd.org/man/page+ANY.alpha

 	Show the manual page for "page", arch "alpha".

     http://man.netbsd.org/man/page+2+NetBSD-1.6.2

 	Show the manual page for "page(2)", collection "NetBSD-1.6.2".

 The defaults:

     section: ANY
     arch: i386 (comes from the server's own arch)
     collection: NetBSD-current

 If releng.netbsd.org is modified to produce a tar file for
 DESTDIR/usr/share/man from one of its nightly builds (e.g.
 i386), I'd be happy to automate the retrieval and unpacking
 to man.netbsd.org.
