Hi Jay,

This makes sense to me, but I work in the documentation community ;) Can 
you say more about your expectations for 'proper reflection of 
distribution' in the future Indiana man pages? I'm not sure we can meet 
your expectations right away, but we can certainly plan for it. Also, 
could you file an RFE through bugs.opensolaris.org for the new section 5 
page you mentioned as nice-to-have? This gets it on the radar.

Thanks,
Michelle
