||
| ## Notes on `Release Process`: | ||
|
|
||
| This **HTACG HTML Tidy** `official` release process must be supplimented with distribution by others. | ||
|
|
||
| Of course, if possible, we recomend building tidy from the git source, it is easy, but also in some OS'es others offer distribution in various ways... | ||
|
|
||
| See [Get Tidy](http://www.html-tidy.org/#homepage19700601get_tidy) - This page really needs expanding. There are some suggestions pending, and more feedback welcome... | ||
