When is the documentation from the old site going to be moved to
Google? I just updated my build box and the documentation would be
kinda handy.

Also are there any plans to add a man page for farbot?

I have not yet figured out a good way to import the HTML documentation
(generated from DocBook XML) to Google's format, other than by making
wiki pages of it all. That seems like a bit of a hassle though unless
I can find some decent docbook->wiki format translation program that
can automate it. For now, the manual continues to live on the old
site: http://dpw.threerings.net/projects/farbot/manual/. If you
install farbot using the FreeBSD port the manual should also be in /
usr/local/share/doc/farbot/xhtml.

I'll add back a link to the online manual on the old and new project
pages so it's not completely hidden. Sorry about that.

I have not really thought about it, but that is a good idea. I'll add
it to the to do list.

Thanks for the link. I don't know anything about DocBook so I don't think
I can help with that.

We have been using farbot for all our servers for the last year and a half
and it has saved us a huge amount of time. Thanks for all the great work.
