man-pages is supported

Starting last month, I reached a long-time goal: man-pages finally has a
paid, full-time maintainer, thanks to a fellowship from the Linux
Foundation.  It's still a little unclear how long the LF money will last
for the fellowship, but for the foreseeable future, I'll be working on:

* Properly documenting every new Linux kernel-userland (and glibc) API,
  and every API change, that is released into the mainline kernel, ideally
  before actual release.  (That's the ideal, but there's a quite a
  backlog, so I'm not going to achieve the ideal immediately.)

* Testing new APIs, again ideally before they are released into the
  mainline kernel, and probably doing some light bug fixing while I'm at
  it (e.g., the recent utimensat() work).

* Design review of new APIs, which of course can only usefully be done
  before they are released into the mainline kernel.

* And of course accepting patches and dealing with bug reports for
  existing man pages.
