Hi Raph,
There are obviously no guidelines at the moment, so please write whatever seems appropriate for now.
I do plan to work on the docs this cycle, so please raise this again then if I forget. Andreas and I were talking about
improvingthe doc build just last week (it's perhaps the biggest task for me when packing pgInstaller or pgAdmin at the
moment).
Regards, Dave.

Subject: Manpage writing guidelines?
To be able to upload to official Debian, I need to have a manpage for
each program uploaded in the package. I wrote a long time ago a small
manpage for pgadmin3 and I am about to write one for pgagent.
Here are some questions:
- wouldn't it be a good thing that pgadmin3.1 is pushed out of
pkg/debian to a more proper place and included in the make install process?
- what tools should we use to write our manpages? Something like xml or
whatever? I mean, if we are about to do something to automate html help
generation and other thing I'm not aware of, maybe it would be a good
thing to unify the way we work.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Raph
