I did all of the PDF docs. It took a lot of time and this was a
donation of mine. We are currently not including these directly in
the downloads due to the fact that would increase the time to
download. It's bad enough as is if you have to download 20MB to a
modem, I couldn't imagine having to double that size just for the PS
docs.

Please remind me of the current packaging of opendx vis-a-vis
documentation. I don't see the postscript docs in the installed version we
have here, but someone else did the install and maybe either didn't
download them or install them. Actually I was looking at the frightful html
mumbo-jumbo in the QuickStart Guide Chapter on Importing Data. As you know
if you've seen it, it's unparseable. However, I just found the PDF versions
online (didn't think to look for them earlier: who did these anyway?
thanks!). So the bottom line question is, shouldn't we be (or are we
already) distributing the PDFs as well as the html in the standard download
packaging (with samples, etc.)? Then, some eager volunteer, maybe me, can
go through the html and put in links to the PDF docs in place of the
garbage html.
Opinions and clarifications, please.
