Err, yes, errm, I think you've missed my point(s) rather.
The thing is that I think we need to be able to distribute other
end-products. HTML is bad for printing, for example, and not ideal
if you have a slow machine. Choice is a good thing.
I think we need some kind of convention for the distribution of
additional end-product documentation formats. Hence my last message.
BTW, I'm not using linuxdoc-sgml any more. In the end I wrote my own
DTD (well, hacked up linuxdoc until it was a quarter of the size) and
backends.
