Sure, I intended that indeed. But the fact that it is in that .zip file does not imply that it will end up in the same monolithic package that users install: distribution editors routinely split up monolithic "upstream" packages in several different "downstream" packages. So, sorry to disappoint you, but I haven't really changed my initial request. > In the end I think that 'git clone' is *the best option*: less work for > org-mode developers/maintainer(s) and the people, who want it on their > disks, are free to clone it... and also to commit ;-) I agree that *currently* it is the best option, and as reported I've already cloned the repo. I was just requesting a feature that could have helped other users like myself (you know, not all users are equal in their needs). Anyhow, it is pretty evident that my goal of having self-contained offline documentation is just not shared by others on this list, so don't worry, I'll shut up in the future.
