Local URIs to use via file:/// in Firefox. Maybe linked from the
relnotes.
It may also be useful for headless servers - the httpd-manual package
might be a useful model for this.
I'd like to see there be a sort of envar $FEDORA_NEAREST_DOCS_URI
that
can be set for a user so that Firefox goes to this URI for
documentation. That lets people get content locally when offline or
behind a restrictive firewall.
Or am I just weird?
No - that sounds like a nice touch. Perhaps just $NEAREST_DOCS_URI, so
that it's obvious that site admins can use it to specify custom document
sites.
