  Personally, I usually prefer html.  Also, although people complain and 
argue, I believe it is still the preferred documentation format for Debian.
I'd like to have tree of all the free tex docuementation in html format. (This
would probably be a lot of work).
  One problem:  the latex documents sometimes give examples of  precisely how
equations will be laid out.  These will be ruined on converting to html.
