--- Begin Message ---Debian recently passed a general resolution regarding the GFDL, details of which are available at: http://www.debian.org/vote/2006/vote_001 It has been brought to my attention that the info documents in the tar distribution include unmodifiable sections: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=357259 Are you willing to make suitable changes to the tar manual to eliminate the unmodifiable sections, or must I elide part or all of the info documents from the Debian package? I've been considering moving to 1.15.90 to pick up fixes for other bugs anyway, so an ideal situation from my perspective would be a manual update that eliminates the unmodifiable sections followed by a new snapshot release on either alpha.gnu.org or the stable site. Thanks for your attention to this. Please preserve the CC in any replies so that our bug tracking system can keep a copy of the conversation. Bdale
