Although I recognize my opinion does not carry any weight in this discussion, I would personally like to see two options added to man.openbsd.org. One would be to specify the latest release and the other would be to explicitly ask for -current. For example: http://man.openbsd.org/release/manpage This would select man pages from the latest release and links in the FAQ could use this format to select release rather than -current man pages. It would also be nice to have a similar option: http://man.openbsd.org/current/manpage This would allow selecting man pages from -current. My personal opinion is that going to a man page should default to the latest release but I can understand reasons for defaulting to -current as it currently is. Those of us who have been using OpenBSD for years are not likely to be reading the FAQ regularly like new users would be and those users will likely be confused if the syntax shown in a man page they click on is different than their release system. Those of us that are used to -current can always select that option in the dropdown menu. Bryan
