I think I was unclear: I'm not advocating doing doc fixes in security-only branches; I'm just explaining why it wouldn't even make sense to do these fixes.
I understood. I was suggesting we modify to allow doc changes that fix errors and push updated docs *online* (not do fresh releases) and asking why not do that (other than policy)?
Well, I think the tradeoff is simply: do you want to do more work? (or, given the same amount of work, do you think allocating your workforce to backporting doc fixes is worthwhile?)
Absolutely. I don't want to maintain that infrastructure.
But perhaps Michael would like to maintain it? He could be given an account on dinsdale if he wants to.
I seriously doubt that Michael would like to resurrect the old tex2html toolchain, and personally I also think that there are much better things he can do with his volunteer time... Georg
