Message-ID: <E1ISbWd-00074O-HB@fencepost.gnu.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <u3axvv8rp.fsf@gnu.org> (message from Eli Zaretskii on Mon, 03 Sep 2007 22:39:06 +0300)

    Indeed.  But instead of `man', why not use the GNU-standard `doc'?
    Thus, we will have

      doc/emacs
      doc/lispref
      doc/lispintro
      doc/contrib (for other manuals)

This is fine with me (I agree with the person who said `misc' is better
than `contrib').

I just wonder whether the added cleanness of creating a directory to
hold these four dirs outweights the disadvantage of moving them down
one level.  If there were many of them, such as 8, then it would be
clearly yes.  With just 4, it might be more annoyance than it is worth.
