I tested rev. 779 a little bit and did not see any problems not to tag and
release 1.0.3. If other users have no any further considerations you nay tag
the tree and then I'll upload the new 1.0.3 packages at:
ftp://ftp.uni-sofia.bg/debian-addons-bg/

Hm, you are right that it is difficult to maintain two man pages.
I see two solutions here:
a) to maintain a really simple xara.1 manpage describing the differences
between ara and xara, if any.
b) xara.1 to be an exact copy of ara.1 manpage

What is the difference between the left and the right widget, except that the
left one has two columns ... is that the problem for word wrapping there ?
Thanks for your improvements.
Btw, what is preffered: to have a separate mailing list for ara on alioth or
to use the debian-ocaml-maint one for discussing ara ?
