So? they have to *wait* until they're online again.
Is it so difficult? They have only to 'postpone(GDT)' the
solution of such problem.
And I believe that the *important features* and tricks are already
covered by both the manual and the variable description in the source
code.

Sorry to contradict you, but this *is* a counter argument.

Until now the "org-mode documentation" [i.e. the info file] has
been *inside* the org-mode package. So it is perfectly
reasonable that *we* understood/inferred
that you wanted to ship worg within the org-mode.zip package.

Thanks for suggesting, /now/, to buid a different package.
And I completely agree with you: *if* somebody will package
the worg site it *must* be packaged in a
*different* package (e.g. 'org-worg') and not in the Org-Mode package.

Do you suggest to integrare org-worg in the info system?
The files are written in 'org syntax' they should be
converted in '(tex)info syntax'.
Is it an easy task? I don't think so, but maybe Richard will
enlight me again ;-) as he already did with the bandwidth/disk matter.
In the end I think that 'git clone' is *the best option*: less work for
org-mode developers/maintainer(s) and the people, who want it on their
disks, are free to clone it... and also to commit ;-)
cheers,
Giovanni
