Maybe you should contact the guys who posted on the newsgroup with an idea
about collection data sheets. Data sheets and low-level programming have a
lot in common.

Why not allow any number of languages?
For example: if an English version is not yet available, you can place only
the Dutch version. Or if a document is available in English, Dutch and
Spanish, why would you leave out Dutch or Spanish?

I think the best way to realize a central info-site is to build a database,
not just make an HTML page with hyperlinks. Using a database, a user could
select "download all docs matching keywords 'English' and 'VDP' in HTML
format, in a single ZIP file".
This may seem difficult to make, but in Unix it's easy to tie programs
together (here: data base, text formatter, ZIP archiver and web server). So
if you can do all the seperate steps, doing the combination is not that
much extra trouble.
