Makes sense.  The need for fleshed-out manpages is already documented
at <http://bugs.debian.org/378056>, so let's use this bug to track
progress in packaging the svnbook for Debian.  (To be clear, alas I
don't think I'll have time to work on this in the immediate future.)
Quick pointers:

  Description     : Subversion users manual

  This package contains Version Control with Subversion, a book about
  Subversion, a version control system that was once designed to
  supplant CVS. The book is published by O'Reilly Media.

  The package contains HTML and PDF versions of the book (although
  you can certainly buy a hard copy if you'd like to), which serves
  as the reference documentation for Subversion. It is translated into
  several languages.
