Hey all,
lahwaacz made a service for collecting and displaying manpages from our
packages that we now operate at man.archlinux.org.
I believe this is news-post worthy.

Title: man.archlinux.org is live
We are happy to announce our newest public service: A manual pages
indexing site at [man.archlinux.org](https://man.archlinux.org) that
publishes all man pages of all our packages and allows you to
[search](https://man.archlinux.org/search) and
[browse](https://man.archlinux.org/listing) them. Check out, for
example, the [man page of
tar](https://man.archlinux.org/man/core/tar/tar.1.en).
You can also find a link to this service in our sidebar. Thanks to Wiki
Admin [lahwaacz](https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/User:Lahwaacz) for
developing
[archmanweb](https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/archmanweb) for this
purpose.
While there are other man page indexing sites out there, it is our hope
that publishing man pages that match the version of our released
packages makes Arch more accessible and that it improves our
documentation even further.

Thoughts?
Cheers,
Sven
