I remember someone volunteered some server space First off, if people provide the raw content then the docs project <doc@freebsd.org> will generally be happy to adapt it, though of course docs already written in SGML stand a far greater chance of making it in quickly since some poor docsslave doesn't have to put the markup in afterwards. Still, even ascii is better than nothing. Second, all of this is free to go on www.freebsd.org (perhaps in the tutorials section?) where it will also be mirrored to 22 countries. I think this is about the best coverage that could be expected.
