[Groff] [PATCH] doc: stop generating W3C validation icons


From: Colin Watson
Subject: [Groff] [PATCH] doc: stop generating W3C validation icons
Date: Sat, 18 Feb 2017 03:37:56 +0000
User-agent: Mutt/1.5.23 (2014-03-12)

Debian's `lintian' tool says:

  These badges may be displayed to tell readers that care has been
  taken to make a page compliant with W3C standards.  Unfortunately,
  downloading the image from www.w3.org might expose the reader's IP
  address to potential tracking.

I think the risk is a small one, but I also don't think the badges
are especially valuable, so it doesn't seem like much to ask to just
drop them at least for groff's own documentation.

* doc/doc.am (.ms.html, doc/pic.html): Remove `-P-V' option.
