Indeed. For TeX Live, Sebastian wrote a nefarious perl script (ctan2tds.pl) which attempts to deal with some of the *many* special cases for packages, as well as some general rules. One of the places it is weakest is documentation generation; so your improved versions will be most welcome. Guess I'm just saying thanks, and I'm looking forward to updating the LaTeX in TL from these packages :). Thanks, karl
