Today, I had a discussion with Mikolaj Izdebsky, maintainer of various Java 
pacakges including Ant / Maven. At the beginning, he mentioned possible license 
issues he is dealing with in -javadoc subpackages, then he mentioned bundled 
jQuery, etc. All these issues are very familiar to me with the rubygem-*-doc 
subpackages.

During the brainstorming, one of the proposed solutions was dropping the doc 
subpackages altogether. And I wonder, does anybody have use case for the -doc 
subpackages. I used to use RI, but I have not used it for ages. Is the RDoc 
HTML documentation useful for anybody? I personally always use online 
documentation, so I would not necessarily miss those. But does anybody else use 
it?

This is more just to measure the sentiment, than that I would plan any action. 
OTOH, I would not mind if I would not need to close my eyes because of the 
unresolved bundling / licensing issues.

Thanks.

Personally, if I have something I have to debug related to gem based packages,
I just directly look at the source itself, or go to github.com.

So _me_ won't mind if current rubygem-foo-doc is not packaged, as far as
I can think of this for now.

Regards,
Mamoru
