Last I checked all I could find was written in Russian, which to my regret, I can't read. I think xmodmap will be there until Wayland replaces X11. Anyway, again, <URL: http://www.charvolant.org/~doug/xkb/html/node4.html> shows the utterly wrong approach to configuring the keyboard: you are supposed to touch the XF86Config-4 file. Keyboard preferences should be defined under $HOME with user preferences. It appears X.org lost sight of the fact that Unix is a multiuser environment where every user furnishes and decorates their $HOME to their liking.
