Hi Hazen (off list):

Thanks again for your release efforts which are really helping to promote
PLplot, give us useful feedback from users, etc.

More comment below in context.

Did you specifically build the documentation first?  If it is built, the
www-install target should exist and the above command should work.  If you
haven't built the documentation, then you will get the above symptoms.

I am sorry, I cannot figure out what (if any) additional permissions are
required for you.  I just checked, and you have everything that could
possibly be relevant.  Did it actually respond that you did not have proper
permissions, and if so what was the exact message?

If instead, you got no response at all, I am pretty sure it is a browser
version problem.  Try a late version of firefox (which is the only one
that worked for me).

For now, I have cut down considerably on the number of different release
pages.  Now there is only the "default" one (which I have edited
appropriately) and the usual "Browse all files" one.

Alan
