Some of them do, others don't; it's optional. The reason why the Texinfo sources don't have to be in the *d.zip files is the same reason why the *.c sources aren't in the *b.zip binary distributions: both *d.zip and *b.zip are for people who _don't_want_ to mess with sources and don't want to produce the binary and docs files from the sources. > To me the formats of interest are the info files and the one piece > html, which is easily printed if desired. Then download the *d.zip, extract the HTML file, and nuke the rest. If the issue is the to have HTML docs in one file, then we could decide that *d.zip should contain both that and the split-HTML version.
