boost-root/index.htm has been deleted and boost-root/readme.html has been added.
Is the intent that readme.html becomes the new home page?
The intent is for it to become the new start page. The web site has it's own home page.
That would be a breaking change for the many user's who have links on their own pages to Boost's index.htm in their local installation of Boost.
OK, which users?
"index.htm" was an unfortunate choice of name, so I think the current reorganization would be a good time to change the home page to "index.html". But we will still need "index.htm" to avoid breaking user links (not to mention our own links!), although it can just redirect to "index.html".
We could also have a "readme.html" that redirects to "index.html", although it seem unnecessary to me.
Why not just have an index.htm that redirects to readme.html? Note, I did the "readme.html" because there was another unfortunate superfluous file at the root "README" that just told people to look at the "index.htm". -- -- Grafik - Don't Assume Anything -- Redshift Software, Inc. - http://redshift-software.com -- rrivera/acm.org (msn) - grafik/redshift-software.com -- 102708583/icq - grafikrobot/aim,yahoo,skype,efnet,gmail
