Hi Elliott,

I've pushed the new PDF book of the Linux man-pages (Deri produced the scripts to produce it) to kernel.org with the 6.03 release of the Linux man-pages. Since you mentioned that you needed Michael to maintain the pages in man7, and we don't seem to be able to contact him to do so, maybe this is good enough for you for now. Please have a look at <https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages/book/man-pages-6.03.pdf> and see if it serves your purpose. Maybe you can suggest some improvements.

You can already link to specific pages (and specific sections within pages) within that online PDF.

So far, I don't plan to add an HTML website of the pages, but if groff(1) improves in the future, I might add HTML manual pages in the kernel website.

Cheers,

Alex
