But there is one more job.
Back in 2013, I committed to keeping links to sections working as the
document evolves. So if you click on a link in a very old email (<3
esdiscuss.org) and it points to:
https://people.mozilla.org/~jorendorff/es6-draft.html#sec-binary-bitwise-operators-static-semantics-isanonymousfunctiondefinition
which has since been merged with some other sections and renamed, some
JS in the page redirects you to that section:
https://people.mozilla.org/~jorendorff/es6-draft.html#sec-isanonymousfunctiondefinition
Each time a new revision is published, some manual steps are required
to map broken links to the right sections in the new document.
Do you mean that old 'es6-draft.html' URLs should resolve to the
corresponding section in the HTML version of the latest ES7+ draft? (In
which case, the latter would need to continue to support (remap) all the old
section-ids.) I wonder if people would find that surprising.
Or do you mean that 'es6-draft.html' URLs will resolve to the HTML version
of ES6-final, but whoever takes on the job for ES7 should make a similar
commitment for 'es7-draft' URLs? (That is, ES7 rev1 wouldn't have any
section-id baggage, but it'll grow from there.)
