Yes, sure, but that wasn't decided yet last night, when I did it.

No, please don't truncate this to .htm.  Most of the files below
texmf/doc/html/whatever don't fit into 8+3.  All the filenames 
are constructed as <title>_<nnn>.html automatically by texi2html 
and all the links will fail if you rename them.  Remeber that 
this directory is indented to be read by (Unix) WWW browsers 
which should be capable of handling them.  If you feel strongly
about this in texmf/doc/html, then put the whole tree elsewhere,
i.e. at a top-level html directory.

Cheers, Ulrik.
