Re: Comments on Docs

[Alexander Kirillov <kirillov math sunysb edu>]

I think it is a bad idea. db2html generates id (if there is none)
according to the line of the original document. Thus, depending on the
location of the <legalnotice> line in the original doc, you could get
ln7.html, ln8.html, etc. 

It'd be much better if instead we always use 
<legalnotice id="legalnotice"> 
which ensures that it db2html will always produce file with name
"legalnotice.html"
