Let's just keep a rendered TXT version where it always (ie. in the src/release... cvs) was but keep the originial as a sgml version in the doc tree. Just like ports/INDEX. Only better. I think it is important to solve the duplication problem we have. It would be very sad to see a release go out with a wrong X.X-RELEASE header in the README.TXT file, has it almost happened, if I'm not mistaken. :) A.
