Don't worry about .html file in muLinux, Clive: this files are
all compress together and txt files compress very well.
Believe me, also if I'll remove totally linux.html, the difference
in size can't be appreciated. muLinux use single big compressed
archive, not single compressed package. This allow high performance
in compression.
I noticed the "Documentation" section is duplicated: no problem;
also 10-plicated bzip2 does a good work on it!
