There is no way to know. Doing 'svn log' shows info about the reasons that some of them were added. People might also be using the document*.dtd to run their own documentation site via Cocoon. Just because we removed our documentation webapp does not mean that other people don't use that ability. I suppose that we could leave this stuff untouched in 2.1 and in 2.2 remove all but a few core examples which show how to configure their own resources. That makes it easier maintenance for us, but more difficult for users. Is a comment (and a link to docs) in the status.xml sufficient to notify about such a change? -David
