Michael Kerrisk who's basically running the man-pages project is on this 
list AFAIK but let me CC him explicitely.

IMO we should work together with him in a way that benefits both our 
projects, so let's find out how this can be done.

Btw. I talked recently with Michael and I'm going now to add Michael to 
the CC list in bugzilla in the manual list. We often get bugreports 
about manual pages, so let him look directly at them...
