Just a quick note based on some of the discussion on the Doc-SIG list: Some people are getting asked to convert their documentation contributions to LaTeX themselves, and that *is* a barrier to contribution. I've generally stated that I'm willing to perform conversion, making plain text / ReST completely acceptable for documentation contributions. Others have commonly converted plain text to LaTeX as well.
I'd like to make sure that Python committers know that this is reasonable; if the only thing holding a contribution back is LaTeXification of documentation, feel free to assign it to me for conversion. I do not want LaTeX itself to cause us to lose documentation contributions; the hard part for documentation really is getting good content. Hard workers shouldn't be turned away. :-) -Fred -- Fred L.
