There is no step 15, so you're looking at old notes I think.

In any case, I suggest that we convert it to Git now and decide
what extra steps, if any, are required later.

We can, I'm just saying the site is then impossible to update until something 
else is done.

Mentioned briefly a few months back, but we could take the Git migration as an opportunity to convert the old StyleBook XML to Markdown and move the docs to github pages, generated directly from git automatically.

This would eliminate Java 6 from the release process, which was increasingly painful. The lack of maintained sources for StyleBook, as well as the lack of availability of OpenJDK6 or Sun/Oracle JDK6, make this problematic on contemporary systems.

I would certainly be happy to do the conversion, if there was consensus for doing so.
