+"Long HTML" Version of the Python Documentation
+===============================================
+
+ This package provides an alternate HTML formatting of the Python
+ documentation. Each HTML file represents one chapter from a manual,
+ or the entirety of a "How-To" document. This mwans there are far
+ fewer individual HTML files than the normal formatting.
+
+ The purpose of this alternate formatting is to provide on-demand
+ publishers with a format that is easier to convert to the
+ proprietary formats used in printing. This allows the printed
+ versions of the documentation to be kept up-to-date more easily than
+ would be the case if only the more user-centric HTML format were
+ provided.
+
+ Anyone is free to use this version for any purpose, so long as the
+ copyrights are maintained according to the license statement. These
+ files are available to all users, including competing on-demand
+ publishers and re-packagers.
