Yes. As you may remember (I posted my HOs on -doc [1]) because of small number of the docs that would be suitable for this. I looked over most docs, and in most of them saw unfinishedness, incompleteness and overall below-the-line quality. *sigh* > Josip, would it be possible to get kick-started, and complete the work > you did to get the DDP CVS area installed automatically into the > Debian web areas somewhere? Well, we could export them all to the right directory right this moment, but there are only five (5) docs that would *maybe* be good enough to enter the wide world of www.debian.org and its mirrors. The 6 remaining are *not* in shape to go anywhere. So we are on -1 :( How can we resolve this? I don't think just not linking them from /doc/index.html would be nice, since the mirrors will mirror it all. OTOH, the overall size of all HTMLs in there is just ~600kb. I must emphasize that this is all just MHO, and not a flame test. [1] See http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/debian-doc-9903/msg00024.html . -- enJoy -*/\*- http://jagor.srce.hr/~jrodin/
