Pick one of those (or five if you feel like it :), do the changes you think need to be done, then use send-pr to submit a GNATS problem report as described in the "Writing FreeBSD Problem Reports article" at http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/problem-reports/ Take care to specify 'doc' as the PR category - this will automatically send your PR to this list, and we will all be able to review it, discuss it, and hopefully eventually bring your changes into the tree :) You don't really have to submit your changes as direct patches to the mdoc-format manual pages, though it is highly preferable. However, if you don't feel too comfortable around mdoc(7), feel free to send us just the text of your changes, and we'll mark them up properly. Thanks for your interest and desire to help!
