True.  You need to run "make".  But don't run it just yet...

The documentation project uses several tools to format SGML documents to
produce a variety of output formats.  The "FreeBSD Documentation Project
Primer for New Contributors" describes how you can use these tools.  Find
it at http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/

A minimal survival guide would be something like:

1. Install the textproc/docproj port:

	# cd /usr/ports/textproc/docproj
	# make install JADETEX=no

2. Enter /usr/doc and run `make'.

	# cd /usr/doc
	# make

3. Install the documentation to /usr/share/doc.

	# cd /usr/doc
	# make install
