Be aware that the master copies of all the README.xxx files come from the
source tree, not the data tree. They are only replicated in the data tree
for convenience.
Here's my view. The README.xxx are there to collect tidbits of information
not documented elsewhere or that didn't really fit elsewhere or that wasn't
really formally written up in an official way. If someone were to update
and move all the information from a README.xxx file over to the official
manual, then I wouldn't have a problem with that particular README.xxx file
going away.
I personally would not be in favor of just dumping them all as they exist
into a single large file. I like the division and the easy ability to
edit/update them. But at some point, if something is deamed important
enough to go into the official manual, then that's great, let's do it.
Regards,
Curt.

Hi all ,
I've been consolidating all the README.xxx files in the Docs
folder into a single PDF file, because I prefer to be able to open ONE file
and search for what I need , and I like the word search and thumbnail
views... I haven't updated or changed any information , at the moment just
transfering them into aa single document. This was for my personal use , but
thought I'd ask if this is something that could be added to the Docs
folder... there appears to be a fair amount of information already in Docs,
so it probably isn't neccesary, but I generally don't read them because the
organization and layout is sometimes hard to follow or understand . I dont
want to read a through a lot of info to get to the section I want , so I
decided this little project would force me go through it all...
If anyone thinks this should be added , I'll do my best to keep it updated
, but would like input from others on what needs updating , what is obsolete
, etc... as long as doesn't interfere too much with my aircraft updating
;) .
Cheers
