i would like to prefix this by saying i am writing this as a user
giving feedback and not a developing giving patches and anyone who has
a problem with that can go shove it rather than telling me to shut up.

i noticed for a lot of the ports to openbsd, even in base, a lot of
documentation is either missing or, how shall i put it, over-compiled.

some examples in my memory are:

texlive* installs e.g. PDF documenation and removes TeX sources, even
though in many cases the TeX sources are an integral part of the
documentation.

man-pages-posix installs cat files rather than man files.  (b.t.w. the
man tools do work with section 0, you just need change the file
extension: i would suggest .3p for compatibility with current section.)

anyway i think users would benefit from including more documentation
when it is in the sources, but, you know, its your time, so dont do it
if you dont want, just dont be prissy about it.
