No, it isn't. I don't have my photo anywhere on the web, that I know of; maybe we could consider a "rogue's gallery" of project contributors on the groff.ffii.org site? The document was first circulated, within Total Lindsey Oil Refinery, as a public domain Weird(TM) file, in March this year; the original author isn't identified, and I don't know the gentleman in the photo. I reformatted it with ms as an exercise to evaluate the effectiveness of antiword -- it got all the text out nicely, but I had to save the original as HTML to extract the images, then convert them to EPS using the NetPBM tools. It took me about fifteen minutes to convert it, and add the troff markup; of course, the finished result is *much* tidier than the original Weird(TM) layout. > I recommend as a definitive example the instructions contained in > British Standard 6008 (BS 6008:1980, ISO 3103:1980): "Method for > Preparation of a liquor of tea ...
