I thought about it, but haven't had time to implement. Right now I just cat the messages together, render, and fix warnings and errors due to bad sgml in submissions. Oh, and write an introduction.

Oh. I just have to laugh. I can't help it. 8-) 8-).

I kid you not :-). About 40% of the SGML submissions I receive are broken in some form, despite a template that is correct. Usually it's unclosed tags, removal of a necessary tag, etc. If I had to guess, asking for nroff/mdoc submissions would result in a slightly higher success rate, as I suspect developers have a bit more experience with it, and also don't have to install a port to get syntax checking.
