I don't know about that one; I'm talking of
http://fatman.mathematik.tu-muenchen.de/~schwarz/debian-doc/ and everything
that it links to. (Now that I look at its URL, I see that it is run by
Christian Schwarz, who has left the project. DDR needs a new home page
site...) In particular, the various manuals link to development versions
and SGML source code at http://www.tip.nl/~t348902/DDP/. These are where
already submitted contributions should have gone and haven't.

If necessary, I will do it; however, the bit that I have been complaining of
is in Ardo's power...
