I discovered today that in -trunk all the docs have been converted to TeX format. Are these docs the only ones that will be in the release tarball? If so, I think it is a bad idea.

We do not want to make people install yet another dependency to be able to read the basic Asterisk documentation.

By the time Asterisk 1.6 comes around, I plan on editing the Asterisk release script to automatically include some user friendly format of the documentation in the tarball. I am thinking HTML would probably be best.

Thank you. Having a plaintext output would be nice as well. I don't run a GUI on my Asterisk boxes. Having to download the HTML docs to a machine with a GUI and a web browser would also be a hassle just to look up 1 page of docs. Even with things like URPMI/YUM/APT-GET, getting TeX installed would be a significant hassle.
