                                        Why?  groff amounts to over 5 MB of source code, most of which is C++ and all of which is GPL.  It runs
                                        slowly, produces uncertain output, and varies in operation from system to system.  mdocml strives to fix
-                                       this (respectively small, C, ISC-licensed, fast and regular).
-                                       </p>
-
-                                       <p>
-                                       The core of <span class="nm">mdocml</span> is the libmdoc library, a validating scanner-parser producing
-                                       intermediate-form output from -mdoc input.  libmdoc is a simple, fast library operating on memory
-                                       buffers, so it can be used for a variety of front-ends (terminal-based, CGI and so on).  
-                                       </p>
-                                       
-                                       <p>
-                                       The primary front-end is <span class="man">mandoc(1)</span>, which formats -mdoc manuals for display on
-                                       the terminal.  The <span class="man">mandoc(1)</span> utility is intended to deprecate usage of <a
