I agree with the idea in general, but the wording is extremely poor. "Reference" is not a computer-technical term. We have dwww and doc-base, where docs in /usr/share/doc can be registered and displayed for browsing. Is this a reference? The definition: Nothing must fail if the files are deleted is much better, IMHO. >
