  Notice that this is in line with other languages, the documentation for R 
packages (as an example) in under the R tree. I would like to favour the 
texmf tree as the natural packaging place of latex documentation.

  The package that started this discussion is the review 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=428686

  I would like to use this package to be an example to draft the fedora 
(la)tex package guidelines. Sooner or later we need them and now is good 
time. :-)

  Notice that the package follows the consensus on this list in August, naming 
the package as tex-simplecv.

  All feedback is welcome. :-)
