Debian doc-base policy.



Hello.

I updated a draft.

/* Debian doc-base policy */

Apps/
 Desctiption:
   Apps/ is a section for applications' documents.
   All applications are filed according to its functionality.
   (e.g. AbiWord under Apps/Editors, GIMP under Apps/Graphics, 
   GNotes! under Apps/Editors, Modem Lights applet under Apps/Net)
 Subsections:
   Databeses
   Editors
   Emulators
   Graphics
   Hamradio
   Math
   Net
   Programming
   Tools
   Technical
   Text
   Shells
   Multimedia
   Viewers
   System
   Games
   Help

Debian/
 Description:
   Debian/ is a section for specific documents of Debian.
   (e.g. Debian Policy Manual, Debian Developer's Reference)

Devel/
 Description:
   Devel/ is a section for development.
   (e.g. GTK+ Reference, HTML Reference, C Language Reference)
   Documents for programming "application"(including IDEs, 
   unix-like tools for programming) are included in 
   Apps/Programming section.

Licenses/
 Description:
   Licenses/ is a section for licences.
   (e.g. GNU General Public License, GNU Free Documentation License)

If you want to include GNOME documentation in the doc-base system, 
you need to move all files in /usr/share/gnome/help/<foo> to 
/usr/share/doc/<package>/html/<foo> and then make a symlink like 
/usr/share/gnome/help/<foo> -> /usr/share/doc/<package>/html/<foo>
With this, you can read documentation with doc-base and with 
the GNOME help system.

/* Debian doc-base policy */

It's only a draft.
Any suggestions are welcome.
