I knew I'd forgotten something in my other messages. My preferred approach to this is to set up docs.freebsd.org, probably modeled along very similar lines to docs.sun.com. We can then set up the links within docs.freebsd.org along much more logical and simple lines than the mess of links, redirects, and Makefile kludges that sit in the current web site. This is probably simpler than trying to iteratively improve the situation in www/. Volunteers wanted. N -- Internet connection, $19.95 a month. Computer, $799.95. Modem, $149.95.
