I have objections Michael, sorry ;-)
Of course, these man pages are really to old!
There is only one reason its are old, noboby maintiends its...

And I'll say like Andries said: "I like man pages and I hate info pages"....

I have two reasons:
- man pages are really easy to use, not info pages...
- man pages are translatable! Not info pages!!!!!

Everybody have to speak english to be able to use Linux? 
Fuck!!!! Windows is translated !
Many people want to use Linux and aren't able to speak or read english.
What about translators?
I'm the french man pages maintener, I maintend as soon is possible for me the 
french man pages translation.
What about us?
GNU want to kill us?
GNU don't care about translators?
Is english the universal language?
No! French is the universal diplomatic langage!!! So, let us be able to 
translate help or documentation.
And GNU info page are untranslatable! Unfortunately...
Is the GNU project acting than an owner project?

I have to say you that now, I hate the GNU project because it act like a owner 
project.... Only english? Fuck you!!!! Don't forget Linus isn't an english 
man

Michael, we have to find mainteners who accept to release man pages against  
the info pages...

I don't know how is Richard Stallman with the GNU project, but I know he will 
be in my town in june, the 14th... Be sure he hear me....
About the GNU project, about the FSF! French translators are really hungry 
with the FSF... The FSF never answer them, never answer their disclaimer!

Michael, are you sure you can't find mainteners for these man pages?

Yours sincerely,
Alain
