Peter just removed all those figures because they were so out-of-date as
to be useless.  If you redrew from the figure rather than from looking
at the actual catalogs documentation, I fear your version is too :-(.

I'd be interested in having a nice figure to document the catalog
relationships, but it has to be something that can be maintained over
time.  The reason the old figures got so out-of-date is that no current
maintainer understood the tools they were generated with.  So if you
want to submit something, I'd ask that it be generated with open-source
tools and that it come with an explanation of how to modify and
regenerate it.  Within those ground rules, go to it ...
