I agree that it should be, but the original poster said he couldn't 
find it and I can't either.  This is where I just looked:

ftp://ftp.FreeBSD.org/pub/FreeBSD/doc/en_US.ISO_8859-1/books/handbook/

We have versions of the handbook in pdb, pdf, ps, rtf, and txt format, 
compressed with bz2, gz, and zip.  HTML is not one of these.  :-(  I'm 
not that familiar with the way we build the docs for our Web site, so I 
can't comment further.

One other thing I noticed:  the modification dates for the
aforementioned files are all "Dec 20 00:47".  Are these files supposed
to get updated more frequently?

Bruce.
