I have deleted most of the general notes on the webpage conversion to using
jekyll, but did keep a question.txt on the old web site. In there are two open
issues that were not addressed in the conversion.

* Documents/Changelog script make simpler to update/generate.
* Development/Todo script make simpler to update/generate.

The first as I recall, subject here, was that of getting docbook stuff to
convert to a jeckyll format, markup language. As the note indicates my intial
thoughts were some kinda of script. That was not carried through and a general
discussion might be still in the mail list to that effect.

This is something that I can not take on right now, and did not also then have
the time. I will consider reviewing again if deemed necessary though, but not
immediately.
