If you only need HTML docs, I can build you a snapshot with a couple of
formats, like FORMATS="html html-split", and upload it somewhere where
you can grab it at your leisure.

If you prefer copying the files yourself, you can recursively retrieve a
copy of /pub/FreeBSD/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1 from one of the FTP mirrors.
