The DVB API specs are under /dvb-spec dir. I've imported the DVB original changesets by using hg convert extension with cvsps. It compiles fine but it requires tetex-latex and Xfig packages. I didn't check if the produced pdf is equal to the one at the linuxtv website. I didn't bother to recover the original author names when importing from CVS, so, it will show the author aliases used on CVS. > and then start updating the docs bit by bit. Volunteers?
