This process is already underway.  The good folks in Apple's tech-docs
group are converting Inside Mac into a humongous HyperCard stack, with
the chapters re-ordered (Color QuickDraw follows QuickDraw, for
example), obsolete information removed (or flagged as "Don't do this any
more, it's a bad idea"), a large electronic index added, and about ten
zillion cross-references to the Tech Notes stack.  The resulting
collection of data is somewhat larger than 10 megabytes... and it's VERY
useful.

An early edition of "SpInside Mac" is available on The Release Version
of Phil & Dave's Excellent CD [Which Is Only Available to Partners
Associates and Certified Developers and Cannot be Purchased by Others
for Any Amount of Money].  APDA says that they'll be distributing the
"real" SpInside Mac once the bugs are out of it.
