What if we want to automate the build of the javadoc?  Can we just
publish them to the website through ant using scp?  I'd hate to lose
the automated publishing of the javadoc.

Perhaps I could publish to my home directory using ant and then have a
cron script on minotaur that cleans out the javadoc periodcially and
copies the new ones from my home dir.  I'm open to ideas here.

BTW it turns out the javadoc differences were not due to timestamps
but due to a different version of the JDK on the build machine.
