[Pki-devel] [PATCH] 475 Converted TPS connector docs into man page.

Thanks for the comments. Please find the attached revised patch.

I changed the man page name from pki-tps-connector to 
pki-tps-connector-config to avoid a possible conflict with the man page 
for pki-tps-connector CLI. Right now the CLI is called "pki 
tps-connection" but I'm planning to change it to "pki tps-connector" for 
consistency.

Please see the comments below.

Fixed.

Do you mind writing something that I can copy & paste it into the man 
page? I don't think I'm familiar enough with it to write a proper 
documentation. Or if you prefer you could send a separate patch on top 
of this patch.

OK. I'll do that in patch #476 because that's where we remove the old 
code that refers to conn.xxx.

I created these tickets:
https://fedorahosted.org/pki/ticket/976
https://fedorahosted.org/pki/ticket/975

Also, as mentioned over IRC I created a list of manual pages:
http://pki.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Dogtag_10_Manual_Pages
To avoid confusion I'm going to add the Dogtag versions in which the 
pages were added.
