I think generic-* are just as much "documentation" as they are 
"resource"; so  the reader should be able to click on a link(*) and 
peruse them, without having to (a) fire up a different client and 
"download" them, or (b) fire up cvs and check them out.  That's just 
needless extra work -- documentation is supposed to make things easier, 
not more difficult; let's not create artificial barriers.

(*) even if it's 
"ftp://some-random-mirror/path/cygwin/resources/generic-foo".
