Martin,

There are indeed CGIs spread across two directories (/cgi-bin/ and 
/data/cgi/.) There are similar (but different) scripts in both di-
rectories, and the web pages reference both versions. 

These scripts conflict:

   /cgi-bin/cvsweb                <->  /data/cgi/cvsweb.cgi
   /cgi-bin/query-pr-summary.cgi  <->  /data/cgi/query-pr-summary.cgi

The /data/cgi versions appear newer (e.g., they use cgi-lib.pl/
cgi-style.pl instead of hand-crafting HTML headers, etc.)

*BUT* the /cgi-bin/ versions are never called. The web server magically 
redirects the /cgi-bin/ requests to the corresponding one in /data/cgi. 
Documents referencing the /cgi-bin/ CGIs should be fixed to call the 
/data/cgi versions directly.

/cgi-bin/cvsweb is referenced from the following documents:

   ./handbook/development.sgml
   ./handbook/sup.sgml
   ./ja_JP.EUC/handbook/development.sgml
   ./ja_JP.EUC/handbook/sup.sgml

/cgi-bin/query-pr-summary.cgi is referenced from ./FAQ/FAQ.sgml.

The only "active" CGI script in /cgi-bin/ is dosendpr.cgi, called
by ./send-pr.sgml.

I've added dosendpr.cgi and its support files into /data/cgi, so
the CVS tree should now be complete. I haven't updated any of the
.sgml files yet.

Regards,

-Ade
