Ok, Jeff. I've been pondering this site.xml thing all day. <aside>BTW, thanks for the
upgrade suggestion. 8o)</aside> I have a couple questions about semantic linking that
maybe you can field.
I don't want to give up the "old" linking method just yet, but I would like to use
semantic linking for certain scenarios. Is this posible with the linkmap
implementation?
In order to manage the 7,000+ pages I would definitely need the XInclude ability.
Would that be very hard to add?
How hard is it to set up one's own link schemas?
Thanks for all your help, Jeff. This look a lot more promising and full featured then
the way I was headed.
Thanks again,
Ben

And doesn't it work? What is the output just before the cinclude?
(sorry, I still haven't twigged.. what does shell.xsl do?)

Ouch.. yes it would. With a sitemap tweak, site.xml could xinclude
site.xml's from subdirectories though.

Oh well, *humans*, there's your problem :o) Upgrade to a species more
tolerant of complexity, and everything will be fine.
