I've done several Gentoo installs and never knew the plain text versions |
| 24 |
existed. I think you might want to check the assumption that just |
| 25 |
because they exists they are widely known (and if they aren't known to |
| 26 |
exist, they don't do squat for the end user). Surely we're not going to |
| 27 |
delve into an arguement over whether the web is the best way to |
| 28 |
distribute information... |
