well, understood.

Actually, they don't. They just refer to the osoft.com site, where one needs 
to register to get the docs.
I wasn't able the download just one thout documentation file without 
registering and go shopping (for $0.00) at your site (I didn't).

(Well, I've downloaded the the thout .tar.gz file, just to have a look, but 
I couldn't even find a README file, which explains installation or usage 
etc.)

I'm -1 on such a practice for the httpd docs.

Anyway, I think, *if* we'd provide the thout format, then we'd need to 
incorporate the necessary transformation in our build system and would 
provide it from our own servers.

Other opinions are, of course, highly appreciated.
