I think a far better use of our time and energy would be writing more content for the Debian-originated tar man page. Since that is included in the tar package itself, it is far more likely to actually be on a disconnected Debian system than info documents in a non-free package that most users are unlikely to install. I'm not completely opposed to the idea, but I'm not yet convinced it's worth doing the work to maintain a second, non-free package.
