Yep, the reason for that id-tag sweep was exactly that: deterministic filenames for the resulting HTML files, so that there are no more dynamically-generated quickly-obsoleted files on the website. > (There are some other documents, such as the porters-handbook, where > this is still a problem.) But are there really? :) My id-tag sweep covered all of doc/en_US and all of the English relnotes. I just did a fresh checkout, clean build and install of the doc/en_US.ISO8859/ tree, and there are no dynamically-generated filenames that I can find, not in the ports-handbook, not anywhere (well, except for a few legal notice documents, but I couldn't figure those ones out at the time of the id-tag sweep). So.. IMHO, cleaning up the website should be safe to do now; as a matter of fact, it has been safe since January 12th, the time of the id sweep.
