The sgml produces html and ps formats. The man pages are not (yet)
generated automatically from the sgml, but will be in some future
release (offers of help on the conversion have not yet resulted in
actual help...).

I would appreciate getting the updates inside of ref/{lock,set}.sgml,
and then you or someone else can update the man pages while I am
working on the hardcopy.

OK, great. That might delay me a bit, but it will be well worth it. I
had hoped to run through another ~200 pages of hardcopy tonight, but
am on hold for both the release notes and the User's Guide.

If you can get to the release notes first, then I can go ahead and
finish 3 docs (the Admin Guide, INSTALL, and HISTORY).

Thanks for all of your work. Hope this crunch isn't too painful :/
