[doc] website alpha docs old (April 2005)?

I was looking at the latest file; which follows this text:

I downloaded the gettingstarted alpha pdf, and it had a build tag date of
Derby Document build: 2005-04-12T11:30PST : 12 April 2005

In fact, ALL the alpha docs are dated April 2005.  I was under the 
impression that the alpha docs were built whenever changes were found in 
some automated build procedure :-)  I guess this is wrong.

1) Can we update the Docs?
2) When are the Docs built and published?

Can we fix or get something in place that will fix this problem in the 
future?

thanks,
scott

Derby-394: Improve formatting and presentation of the documentation.

1. Added more related links. DITA can dynamically create related links 
separated   by conceptual info, task info, and reference material to the 
bottom of each
   page of each book. This means that not only does it place a link to the
   parent topic of each file, but it also adds sibling links and 
children links.   When I originally created the DITA files for these 
books, I didn't account
   for this.

2. Implemented use of the <shortdesc> tag. If we separate the first few
   sentences of each topic from the rest of the content by placing them in a
   <shortdesc>, the result is that if the parent topic or any siblings 
have a
   link to that topic generated by DITA, then the content in the 
shortdesc tag
   is also pulled and used as a summary of the topic.

3. Improved badly-formed tables.

4. For the Server and Admin guide, editorial changes such as fixing grammar,
   spelling, and punctuation, removal of italics and bold type where it 
wasn't
   needed, and removal of empty topics.

Weird. The timestamp stopped updating.

Docs and javadoc are built nightly and published to the website  
around midnight. Check out the timestamps on the directories: http:// 
db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/

And you can see that the fix for DERBY-544 is reflected at: http:// 
db.apache.org/derby/docs/dev/adminguide/cadminappsclienttracing.html

I need to figure out why the PDF timestamps are frozen at April 12,  
2005. That's pretty odd. :-) The docs themselves are up to date.  
Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

I think some of this might have to do with the version of DITA that is 
on the build site, or whomever's build path that builds the docs.

Somewhat related, the DITA source is incorporating the data change in 
the next version, I don't know why it got removed from the last version.
Some items still need to be fixed with the DITA source and the derby 
build.  This more than likely would be a good time to incorporate some 
of the changes that haven't been entered into the document svn repository.

Sorry I missed this information:
Note that the files I checked were ONLY the PDF files.
