Uhm, there most definitely _is_ a permanent record of htdocs on
cvs.netbsd.org.  There's also www-changes@ for every commit to htdocs
if someone's bored enough with life to follow it. :)

list is the extension for a reason, being that its used for lists.  The
faqs and news files (our 'TOC/anchored entry' style) are the ones generated
from them.

Depends on what type of document it is (see above).  Things may change
slightly shortly, where more of the site is autogenerated from 'templates'
to make it easier for translation projects, but I have too many other
things I need to do in htdocs at the moment.
