No, just:

demo
docs
  html
  pdf
frameworks
javadoc
  publishedapi3.0
  publishedapi4.0
lib
index.html

and index.html has the links into the 3.0 and 4.0 javadocs, as well as
pointers to the various manuals, the same ones we have today. And, now
that I'm thinking of it, also into the demo html files as well. So, a
master index.html for the distribution.

Great, thanks.

Yes, please.

Thanks, Andrew,

A couple more small points:

It turns out the if="jdk16" clause is on the target itself. I have 
verified that if I remove the jdk16 flag from ant.properties, then we 
continue to build the same javadoc we did six months ago.

By top level, do you mean in the same directory that holds BUILDING.txt 
and published_api_overview.html?

Yes. (don't forget to add that if="jdk16")

Nope. Could you check your file in as index.html at the top level
though? I like what you had written for the javadoc. I'll add sections
for the docs and demos.

Thanks, Andrew. I think I'm beginning to track what you're proposing. 
Your directory structure is very similar to what's in my patch for 1079, 
except for the following:

o the subdirectory names are a little different under the javadoc directory
o I put the index.html in the javadoc directory rather than at the top
o your proposed index.html is more capable than what I wrote

Here's what's in the patch:

...
javadoc
  jdbc3
  jdbc4
  index.html
...

Is the following then a fair summary of your patch comment:

o I will remove my index.html from the patch
o At your leisure, you can create a more capable, top level index.html 
and wrestle with the release machinery to get it into our release 
distributions

Hope I'm not talking at cross-purposes still.

Thanks,
-Rick
