## Notes on `Release Process`:
|
|
|
|
This **HTACG HTML Tidy** `official` release process must be supplemented 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...
