I'll put digging up the LaTeX sources and creating a repo out of them on 
the todo-list.  I'll probably need to edit some things first; e.g. IIRC 
the appendix of manpges builds nicely only on NetBSD (should just remove 
those and direct people to man.netbsd.org).

Yea the problem with netmap is that the tutorial would have to start 
"set up netmap", and that's not very interesting especially for people 
who want to learn how to configure rump kernel networking and don't have 
netmap available on their host.

I'd say shmif the best option there since it works universally and 
without root privileges.

Ok, so networking will be one tutorial:

* interface creation
* configuring ipv4/ipv6 addresses manually
* ip4/ip6 using dhcp & autoconf
* configuring routing
* creating a L3 router
* ...

netmap can then be a howto which points to the shmif tutorial.
