Hi Robin,

thanks for your help in forwarding my
email to the TeXLive team.

Karl replied today (he has kindly fixed the man page issue for me),
  and I suggested that an having an
TeXLive email address  placed on their TeXLive web page would be very 
helpful.

thanks again to you and the tug team.
much appreciated :-)

regards,
Dick
