There's no reason to keep them around, but no real reason to get excited about removing them, either. If there is something that will CAUSE PROBLEMS, hopefully it ends up on current.html, and I'll incorporate it into upgradexx.html, but the rest is mostly cosmetic. There are gobs of library files and other things that get left behind on an upgrade that really aren't an issue. The deletion list this time around was too long as it is. If you want to look for files that are older than the upgrade you just did, go for it, but I suspect you have better uses of your time. Nick.
