That's true -- but we do go through the NEWS file to look for untagged items and then tag them up. So adding a :NODOC tag makes the archaeology slightly more inconvenient from then on. (I'm not saying that this, in itself, is a deal breaker or anything, but it's just another minor annoyance, that along with the other minor annoyances, makes me less than enthusiastic about doing the tagging this way.) -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
