True.  Unless we are going to revamp the text in some major way so
that we produce "true" HTML, not just the text source enclosed in a

 pair, I would think we are better off keeping it not
passed to AsciiDoc and leaving it in text format.  After all, modern
browsers, which I presume those who want HTML output files would
read them with, can display plain text files just fine, don't they?

There was some talk about asking those who are adept at website
engineering to work on git-scm.com; it may be a good starting point
to look at these text files that weren't originally written to be
given to AsciiDoc and convert them to be true AsciiDoc sources.

Thanks.
