And roff has .IR ;-)

These days, most of the docs I write are in texinfo or HTML (raw html,
not markup).  I think I've experienced most of the formats on your list.
I think I've written converters between many things on your list.

Is there a canonical reference to the flavor of roff that we write to,
for modern systems' man page formatters?
