Except of the few stuff that has been written for section 9 of the
manual by now, and of course, the 4.4BSD daemon book (and the refs
under /usr/src/share/doc/), it's probably mostly UTSLware still.

Submissions for new section 9 man pages are greatly welcome!  Many of
the pages there have been written by people in the process of
understanding ``what's going on inside''.  If you don't speak troff
-mdoc that's not a problem -- there will be people who can convert a
plain ASCII document into this format once it's written.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
