Hi Dave -- If no one else chimes in, I will do this later today. This will effect areas like:
http://www.openoffice.org/promotions/ which has no index.html file. Of course, there exist many subdirectories under the main website tree that have no "index.html" file and are presumably linked in by something. My current dilemma involves having to upload over 500 QA manual test cases into an area. It would be far more convenient to just let them go to "list mode" if you will rather than creating an index file for them, especially since I'm fairly certain, we may not want to keep/use all of them.
