The Treelang manual isn't a great example of a front end manual.  The 
front end may not be a great example of a front end either - it certainly 
doesn't follow the GNU Coding Standards particularly well - but your 
resurrection was a reasonable example of how you can take something old 
and bitrotten and clean it up, and should anyone wish to go further with 
Treelang it could serve as a first stage of a gradual transition into a 
great example.
