I am not sure the "getting outdated" argument works here; I have to
store the source somewhere. The HTML version is not "definitive" in the
sense that I generate it from DocBook source. There may be some argument
to moving it out of its current location and into intltool. Except that
I keep having this idea that I should just package up gnome-devel-docs
and release the whole module. If I move the source location, I am not
going to remove the web page (which is more likely to get out of date
than the source).

Kenneth: I'll let this bounce around in my head for today and probably
do something this evening.
