I think it's a good idea for each package to build an index.html for its
/usr/doc directory, with relative links for its documents. "dwww" can
get the name of the package from the directory, and the description from
whatever comes between <title> and </title> in the Index.html . For
example, the "netbase" package can contain an index.html with
something like <title>Basic Networking Utilities</title>.
