[FM Discuss] Versioning for entire collections

[Joshua Gay]

It would be nice if the package installed into the Applications menu
into a FLOSSManuals section (on Debian and Ubuntu). I don't think a
GTK reader would be bad. It would be nice if they also had info and
man integration, with the aim of making info and man readers of the
future, sexier. Integration of end-user documentation and man/info
documentation would be nice (I could imagine something using inclusion
-- this would be easy in a GTK reader, since you have all of the the
GNU C library terminal functions at your disposal). Also, it would
also be good if the PDFs and HTML pages linked to the wiki.
