script updates
Hi! As a first preparation for a possible move of the webwml repository to subversion or git, I have started to rewrite the perl scripts. I'm abstracting all VCS-related actions into a separate perl module, so that it will (hopefully) be easy to change whatever backend we use. In the process, I'll also clean up the scripts (which seems very overdue), and rewrite parts if necessary. Of course, this will probably introduce bugs, or break existing functionality. If you notice anything like that, please let me know. I'll try to fix any regressions asap.

How do you intend to resolve the matter of tracking versions, what was in CVS the process of incrementing the file revision numerically? That depends on the VCS we decde to use. For Subversion I have a method that uses a trigger on the server to update the file revisions to the correct numbers. For git, it's apparently possible to predict the SHA revision hash, so there should be no issues there.
