At least one of the discussions going on was exactly the HTML coming a few weeks after the text scenario. This was the go through all the rounds and the PPer posts the text version as soon as it's done and posts the html later. This didn't seem like a terribly useful approach to me as the html version of the text is typically NOT where the bottleneck is at DP. Of course there was at least five other aproaches being discussed in the thread. Greg Weeks On Sat, 20 Feb 2010, Jim Adcock wrote:

We are not talking about a "revised" version showing up in a couple months. Rather, we are talking about doing a posting which includes HTML 3.5 years later. Verses posting the txt version now rather than later, and thereby increasing the total collection size of PG by 20%. One could argue that this would make the whitewashers job easier rather than harder -- because then Al wouldn't have to put up with random submissions from people like me who give up on DP and "route around damage" [thereby introducing "damage" of our own! :-]
