Hi Rooters, 

I really don't think that there is even a question about 
'how' the user manual to be written, as far as format is 
concerned. There is no even a choice here:

 LaTeX document is the only available option. 

Given sufficient motivation *.tex source can be converted in 
whatever format conceivable.  

I'd love just to have possiblity to download User Manual from 
root site in PS format, print it and don't wish anything else. 
Having hardcopy handy plus already existing root's reference guide 
should be sufficient. 

pdf! I cannot even read it from my machine, should go to the 
PC running hated OS to view it

regards,
Dmitri Litvintsev
