writing man pages or texinfo documentation
Hello,
another excellent way to help our effort is to write man pages. Debian
policy mandates that every binary comes with a manpage. We have none
currently. The information you need has to be gathered together from the
hurd.texi file, the executables, the sources, and existing man pages.
I know that the GNU project doesn't like man pages. Improving the info file
would of course also be a good way to help. We can than write a dummy man
page that only goves a synopsis and then points to the info file.
Here is a list:
