Well, if people are not too fussy, we could put up the Solaris-variant of the 
GNOME User Guide in pdf. The advantage is that we create a fresh pdf file of the 
UG anyway every time we do an update to the source files, so there is an 
automatic creation process. The disadvantage is that there are a few mentions of 
Solaris. The only place where this is really a bother is in the starting a 
session section.
