I have all of the original *roff manuals formatted w/ groff. I did a few cleanups but they are basically the stuff from Bell Labs. I got them from the TUHS site and so far as I know they are cool to be handed out. I can check with dmr or bwk. If I get an OK, is there any reason to not include these with groff?
