3. Housekeeping: Why is there subdirectories appendixa, appendixb, and

directory and move all three files there.
Well, I tried to do that several months ago but Gerard refused it.
If I refused it, I don't remember doing so.
The only thing I would object to is to combined all appendices into one
single appendix when it is rendered. I'm sure that this is not going to
happen if the tags themselves that we use are not changed. The physical
file locations can be in one directory. I don't have a problem with this
and I don't see a drawback of that, either.
If somebody remembers when this discussion took place in the past and
could remind me why I refused this, I'd like to know. Maybe I'm
overlooking something right now than I thought of back then.
If not, let's just consider it a misunderstanding in the past and make
the change now if it makes sense to make. What I really are about is the
final rendering as people read the book. As long as that doesn't change
and the order remains the same (unless we re-write index.xml and reorder
the appendix entries, that's simply not going to happen, so nothing to
worry about).
