My feeling is that the "guile" link in http://www.gnu.org/manual should always go to the same page as the "Manuals" link in http://www.gnu.org/software/guile. > However, the current doc page [0] has more information (manual for 1.6 > and for GOOPS, tutorial, book) so we need to find a way to "merge" both > pages.

That sounds fine from a usage point of view, but it also sounds unnecessarily hard to implement, if pages like http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual are generated as a whole by gendocs.sh. It sounds to me as though it would be easier to keep the existing http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/docs/docs.html as the main Manuals page, and modify its "Reference Manual for Guile 1.8" link to point to http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual. Then later, if we want, we can progressively create parallels of http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/manual for the GOOPS and 1.6 manuals, and so on, and just update the links on http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/docs/docs.html to point to them.
