   I'm thinking about making up a set of manpages, working from
   the info files.  If I did that, and sent them to you, would
   you be willing to include them in future distributions and to
   maintain them going forward?

Yes, if the manpages are generated automatically from the info files.
Otherwise, sorry, it's probably too much of a pain to maintain it,
though I might be willing to put in man pages but say they're not maintained.

Maybe you can just point people at
http://www.delorie.com/gnu/docs/diffutils/diff_toc.html
since those html pages are generated automatically from the info files.
