 If you=E2=80=99re sure you got all the goodies I=E2=80=99ll probably import=
  yours
 then. (I think I didn=E2=80=99t touch these areas, so they=E2=80=99re OpenB=
 SD=E2=80=99s=E2=80=A6)
 
 As for mdoc: please try to not use any GNU groff extensions.
 We use AT&T nroff.
 
 Thanks for the feedback,
