First, is there a package of the current FreeBSD handbook and FAQ
that I can download as one file and pkg_add on my system to bring my
local documentation up to date?  It is allways too slow to access the
current copy on your web site.

Second, is there any work going on to convert the man pages into
hypertext linked html documents to be used with a browser.  I like
the way the FreeBSD handbook works far more than xman.  And since I
keep a browser up anyway, it would be much faster to access. 
Actually, I would prefer all docs to be in html (/usr/share/doc and
/usr/share/man).

Thanks,
