Its in git. Just ship the lot as a sub component. Or possibly as a make target. e.g "make worg" pulls it in. These references to non org resources are a little unnecessary. Worg.

That is already true of all SW you install. As is the argument "you can see it online". That is also true of the org manuals. remember the OPs main request was to facilitate offline access. And many of us work offline a lot. I do on my laptop. I can understand his initial request. > Then in, e.g., Debian you will have it both in the org-mode package AND > in the Emacs-documentation-non-free package! > > I think that it is really too much, and also not environmental friendly. > (bandwidth, disk space...) Would you like to censor the contrib sub dir ;) Not all of that is used by all people too. Disk space argument is a little flimsy to be honest. > let's ask: > Who will benefit from this choice? 400 people using Org-Mode? > does the squeeze worth the juice for 400 people? Worg is a valuable help resource.

We stopped thinking about people on 100 baud lines a while back ;) Well, I did ... ;) Cheers, r. > > cheers, > Giovanni > > _______________________________________________ > Emacs-orgmode mailing list > Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list. > Emacs-orgmode@gnu.org > http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-orgmode >
