Like the status update says, I volunteered to make a start updating the
docs to XHTML. I've been away for a while, hence the silence, but I'm back
and have (a little) time to work on this!
So, here's my suggested plan:
1. Work on individual pages
* Lower-case all the tags
* Add/change the DOCTYPE tag on each file
* Replace colours specified in <BODY> with <style> tags??
2. Once that's done, look at the common content to each, and "factorise"
it out into included files where possible. Not sure about using SSI for
this - it's not always enabled, so we couldn't use it for vital content...
I've attached a diff for index.html.en for review, to see if anyone has
any objections to any changes there?
