Follow-up Comment #1:

Bruce, we (either savannah or gnu maintainers) have no control over or direct
access to the www server.  There is no way to access it except through the CVS
repositories and I don't see this changing any time soon.

What I do is run ls -lt | tail in the html_node directory of the CVS checkout,
after updating, and cvs rm the old files.  There are usually only a few.  All
the file names outside of html_node don't change unless the actual manual name
changes.

I embedded this little procedure in the Makefile.am for hello, not that anyone
is likely to find it there, I grant you:

wwwdoc:
        rm -rf $(doctemp) && mkdir $(doctemp)
        cd $(doctemp) \
        && ln -s ../*.texi . \
        && env $(gendocs_envvars) $(gendocs) $(gendocs_args)
        cp -arf $(doctemp)/manual/. $(www_target)
        ls -ltu $(www_target)/html_node | tail  # cvs rm -f obsolete files
# followed by cvs add of new files and cvs commit.

Hope this helps.  Doubt it does but I just don't see anything else to do or
say.  Sorry.

karl
