"groff -Thtml -man zic.8" would have done it automatically, though with results that don't look as nice as what you did. If we were to switch the format of manual, it should be to a format that is designed for documentation, e.g. Texinfo, DocBook or linuxdoc-sgml; I think this would be more useful than switching to HTML. In the meantime I wouldn't bother to maintain separate copies by hand, as groff is good enough. It shouldn't hurt to add rules to the makefile to generate the HTML automatically, though.
