Well ok, I changed my mind and re-established man.suckless.org, a bit
simpler than before:

For example all suckless tools' man pages can be found at

   http://man.suckless.org/1/

Except 9base and sbase have different URLs:

  http://man.suckless.org/9base/1
  http://man.suckless.org/sbase/1

Cheers,
