Hmm, did I overlook something? As far as I remember, the changes were basically limited to adding id-attributes to various opening tags. At worst, they may also add #foo to some link entities. > (Put it this way...you're in the middle of managing a bunch of > translations, but not done yet.

From the cvs comment, of course. > Ah...sorry, it's not obvious to me at all. :-p I *do* need new glasses, it seems. Or did I try to make reality make my wishes.

But > that's an issue for another time.) Exactly that is one of the reasons why I want to get rid of html-split. The other is that there is next to no good reason for html-split, because as far as the release notes are concerned, it just produces one or two files with 2-3% of the content and one big file with the remainder. And the split points do not make sense to me at all. > No problem. Basically, we'd do the cleanup and then immediately run a > rebuild. Talking about rebuilds: I think it would be a good idea to change the web site build to a) do complete builds (i.e. remove all checked-out copies and rebuild everythin) only ONCE per Sunday, not during every run on Sunday b) build the non-english versions more often than twice per day. /s/Udo -- "There are only a few problems in this world that cannot be solved by the correct application of a sufficient amount of high explosives" - a.s.r.
