Hello,

Would you consider accepting the below diff?

The purpose of its addition of id parameters in a bunch of places is
enabling savvy visitors to link directly to subsections of the page.
E.g. a user could then send someone a link to
http://www.openbsd.org/policy.html#isc , i.e. specifically to the part
of the page that's about the ISC license, etc.

Alternatively, the same ends could be accomplished in a more generally
user-visible way with the addition of clickable anchor tags, and I'd
be happy to whip up another diff in case the latter turned out to be
preferable.

regards,
--ropers
