I hadn't looked into this yet, just had some ideas. Building the entire website is almost surely going to be a PITA. The biggest drawback is likely going to be that when the website's design is updated, the old version pages are going to keep the old design, possibly including old navigation with lots of dead links etc. Probably the best solution is some compatibility shim (read: big pile of very ugly hacks) that allows old versions' content to be built with the current website design. Building old site versions verbatim, despite the flaws, is almost surely going to be much easier. I think Digger is the best tool for the job for this approach, as it already knows how to build old versions of everything else. One last thought is that we bundle HTML documentation with DMD releases themselves. These are fairly independent of the website and could be used directly. I hadn't looked into this yet. --
