Cliff, *, Just for the record, I delved into the pamphlet-as-latex thing head first and implemented my own noweb-like tool because I wanted to enrich my understanding of the issues. The timing was motivated by the steadfast insistence by Martin and Ralf that they did not want to see the latex change migrate into trunk. I do not want to see either of them leave, as I greatly value their insights and work. However, that is not enough (for me) to say that the latex change should not occur.
I eventually came to what I hope is technical, objective, position as to why pamphlets-as-latex is not the correct approach. At the same time I am trying to advocate a perspective about what pamphlets _can_ become which is consistent (I hope) with Tim's vision. I sincerely hope that others will chime in and back the approach I am advocating, or perhaps something simillar. I have yet to see what is lost by adopting it.
