Sorry for the "stop energy" here. When I said that I didn't realize these files are all "top-level". I assumed they were in some versioned subdir. And I didn't realize the actual links on those pages themselves were broken. I still think it is good to make sure Gerald knows. And I really like the idea of having the .htaccess redirect (in case people hit this through "old" searches). But I do agree now the old html files really need to go. Thanks for noticing and proposing a solution. Cheers, Mark
