you're correct, and pardon my nervous attitude :-) I usually announce releases on this mailing list, so I presumed that users of this mailing list were aware of the fact that the PPM distribution is only there to help people without a C compiler, not to provide a complete package. the documentation is not stable at this point, so it can't be added to the PPM (would leave a mess of half-written files here and there with every new release :-). > This goes to another question.
