    doc/webpage.ms: Update and fix style nits.
    
        doc/webpage.ms:
        + "manpages" -> "man pages"
        + Update project maintainer info; Ted and Werner have retired.
        + Remove redundant arguments from .MTO macro calls.
        + Incorporate change from Dave Kemper noting that the bug-groff
          list is not for _reporting_ bugs anymore.
        + Add discretionary breakpoint to Deri James's (long) email
          address.
        + Tighten wording about Perl requirement.
        + Consistently protect the "S." in "Eric S. Raymond" from
          end-of-sentence recognition with \& instead of \~ or nothing
          at all.
