They seem to have been created with latex2html; I don't know how much
additional tweaking was required.  (Is the current linux-athena.ps
up-to-date?  Probably so.)

If nobody has done it by the time I'm done with the current round of
6.035 optimizations, I'll do it, and stick the html files somewhere,
and let someone bitful on linux-dev put them where they belong.

Feel free to laugh at me if I'm overestimating how well latex2html
(which probably has a manpage somewhere, though I couldn't tell you
where) does its job and am about to cause myself no end of
frustration.
