I feel plain text or HTML as a standard....all others are lovely for
specific systems and should be able to be created from these formats
at least with plain text there is a gaurantee that all systems will be able
to use it......if HTML it should be basic HTML....like
HTML code here
under this line plain text only and NO HTML tags etc
==============
Document plain text here, including all seperators
===========
HTML code here

&gt;&gt; I'm open to suggestions and have a few of my own on this matter, so
&gt;&gt; feel free to make them.

&gt;I feel strongly that plain text is the most basic, universally readable
&gt;format, and should always be accepted, no matter what.
&gt;
&gt;I often like to read documentation on paper, and it's a lot easier to
&gt;print something in plain text than in HTML or another format.
&gt;(Especially if you have a non-Postscript printer and are printing the
&gt;docs from DOS or Windows, *before* you install Linux.) If people want
&gt;Postscript, then by all means give it to them, but don't forget to
&gt;include plain text too.
