Not amongst the tiny group of people who produce specs.

Anyone publishing source documents without going through the spec
generator is doing harm to their readers. It's really inexcusable
given that we have had Echidna for over a year and we worked so hard
to get the auto-publish process in place at the W3C.

Even if you don't want to use Echidna, you can run
`./tools/respec2html.js` locally when you check in your spec to have
it generated for you.

If people have any problems with generation, I'm happy to help them get set up!

As one of ReSpec's maintainers, and for the benefit of those that rely
on our specs, I would really like to see less ReSpec buttons (and
FOUC!) and more specs on /TR/.

Let's work towards making that super easy.
