I think the html changelog SHOULD be there since that is its native form. lynx can be guaranteed to make a mess of anything more complex than a simple HTML file and as a result the original HTML should be provided in those cases. Since it's hard to deal with ifs like that in the policy, and since it doesn't hurt a lot, I would say it'd be good to have both. -- Joseph Carter <knghtbrd@debian.org> Debian GNU/Linux developer GnuPG: 2048g/3F9C2A43 - 20F6 2261 F185 7A3E 79FC 44F9 8FF7 D7A3 DCF9 DAB3 PGP 2.6: 2048R/50BDA0ED - E8 D6 84 81 E3 A8 BB 77 8E E2 29 96 C9 44 5F BE -------------------------------------------------------------------------- <Culus> there is 150 meg in the /tmp dir!
