> The handbook and FAQ are moving out of the main source tree to a
> new top-level directory in the CVS repository (doc).  Until the
> dust settles, please do not commit anything to either the FAQ or
> the handbook (both english and japanese).
> 
> The move is being done because these documents are generally not
> release specific so maintaining them on multiple CVS branches has
> been nothing more than a needless hassle.
> 
> Looking into the crystal ball, moving these things out of the
> "make world" process removes the requirement that the SGML
> processing tools be part of the source tree.  More specifically,
> improvements HTML generation and a conversion from Linuxdoc to
> DocBook will be greatly expidited by a switch from the current
> sgmls/instant combination to jade (a DSSSL processor). 
> 
> New tools will be avaialble in port/package form at which point
> the existing SGML tools in the src tree will be removed.
