Well, I assumed Tom was referring to placement in the source tree, i.e. {prefix} is contrib/dblink, etc. But this raises a good question in terms of where these files should be installed. The README.xxx files all go to {install-prefix}/doc/contrib. I experimented with changing the Makefile line: DOCS = README.dblink to be: DOCS = README.dblink doc/* Unfortunately the files from contrib/dblink/doc still wound up being installed to {install-prefix}/doc/contrib, which would become a naming collision hazard. Maybe they should go to {install-prefix}/doc/contrib/xxx (where xxx is the name of each contrib dir)? Joe
