    Many people ask about Genera and seek appropriate documentation.  It might
    very useful if the standard DocEx information set in pdf format were
    available via some W3 server.  Although the current Open Genera product
    presumably includes such material, few have access to it.  I wonder if,
    with Symbolics's approval, anyone could be a volenteer pdf server (machine
    space or site buillding).  It would act as a rich source of information
    concerning Lisp Machine Lisp in general and help foster Symbolics business
    too.

I have plans for making this information available on the Symbolics Web site,
but haven't gotten around to it yet.
