You should probably read the whole thread before replying. Prior to this message, I must have read half-a-dozen or more messages saying that _we_ _wouldn't_ remove them if they _were_ _free_. They would only removed if they were Invariant and yet removable, in order to make the manuals free. If the sections in questions were DSFG-free, then we wouldn't need to remove them to make the manuals free. Peter
