Questions about the timestamp webbot

Reading the documentation guidelines by Bill Kempf I stumbled upon the suggestion of using the so called timestamp "webbot": <p>Revised <!--webbot bot="Timestamp" S-Type="EDITED" S-Format="%d %B, %Y" startspan --> 01 January, 2001 <!--webbot bot="Timestamp" endspan i-checksum="39359" --> </p> I've got some questions about this: 1. Is this feature still supported by the Boost web site? 2. What is the checksum stuff? Googling for this yield no info. 3. Where can I find info on the date formats supported 4. Suppose I've got an HTML doc written on May 10 like this: <!--webbot bot="Timestamp" ... startspan --> 10 May, 2004 <!--webbot bot="Timestamp" endspan i-checksum="39359" --> and later on, say May 15th, I update some of its contents and commit the changes to the CVS *without manually replacing the revision date*. Which of these two possibilities happens (if any)? 3a. When I retrieve the HTML doc from CVS again, it has automatically been changed to <!--webbot bot="Timestamp" ... startspan --> 15 May, 2004 <!--webbot bot="Timestamp" endspan i-checksum="39359" --> 3b. The "10 May, 2004" stays untouched though it is correctly displayed as "15 May, 2004" when the doc is served by Boost web site. Thanks Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo
