I’ve made a _little_ progress, I’ve converted the content to asciidoc and 
arranged it in Antora structure, made playbook and UI projects, and fixed the 
command line errors, and made a global index.  I put up a preview at 
https://felix-preview.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/documentation/auto-index.html 
<https://felix-preview.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/documentation/auto-index.html>.

There’s lots more to do.  If anyone is interested in looking or helping I can 
push my local repos to GitHub or even set up Apache git repos for the projects 
and push to them.
