[Paraview-developers] ParaView User's Guide

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

That's a good idea (I agree, it's too opaque indeed). No, the LaTeX
files themselves are not an issue, size-wise, much smaller than the
code itself, in any case.

I think I like this idea. Unless there are any other opinions, maybe
we'll stick with this one.
