interesting source for man pages is Debian packages, Debina creates a manpage
for every package in the case upstream doesn't provide one.
Some of them are useless (boilerplate) but some are quite good. Taking a look
at the Debian manpages and submiytting bugs for packages who could benefit from
them would be a great thing todo. Now all you need is 48 hrs in a day :)
Fortunately, the point of Ville-Pekka's project is to provide a Wiki
(Moin) interface in front of the man pages, then a way to submit changes
back up stream.
In the end, we'll be inviting the whole Fedora community to help fix man
pages, all via the Wiki.
Once that gets going, that's when I recommend we look cross-stream at
what other distros provide and can we contribute to those as well.
