Show HN: Manpages.debian.org has been modernized

I felt that publically available manpage repositories were lacking in one aspect or another (incomplete, hard to navigate, only offering plain text), so I set out to improve an existing one: the Debian manpage web repository.

Check out e.g. https://manpages.debian.org/jessie/cron/crontab.5.en.html for an interesting entry point, showcasing a couple of features.

For the full launch announcement, see https://people.debian.org/~stapelberg/2017/01/18/manpages-debian-org.html

Hope this is useful to some of you!
