To my mind the LDP distinguishes itself by it's focus
as a collection of redistributable documents.
The LDP has historically focused on being redistributable
in multiple media, as opposed to a strictly
web-connected browser-based access method.

IMO it is far, far, too early to argue that
the browser-over-the-internet access method
is the be-all and end-all of information acquisition
and the LDP should retain it's character as a
collection that's distributable via all kinds
of channels.

Because if it does not it will be lost in the noise
of the Internet?
