A very long book.

The three versions are the same except for
the font size, which may matter depending on what
device you are reading it on.

yay!

Finally something compelling to put next to "The Java(TM) Class Libraries"!

I guess we should start proof-reading...

PS: Some of the very long signatures get cut off - anything we can do
about them (besides having wrap-around in go/printer)?

Sweet.  All it needs is a ToC and an index :).

How was this generated?  Did I miss a CL adding PDF export (or LaTeX export, which would be even shinier)?

This was really just a quick and dirty data dump so that we
can skim the API easily before the release without clicking.
I wrote a custom template for godoc that generates troff input.
It's not checked in.

I noticed today log/syslog.Logger claims to implements a log.Logger interface, which so far as I can tell, isn't true.
