I agree on this 100%.  The Artwork pages are out of date for the large
part.

My thoughts:
 * Dump the Warty, Hoary, Breezy, and Dapper.  They are finished.
 * Artwork Documentation should be below Artwork in my opinion.

Great idea.  You have my vote Et.

I think the older release bits are not necessary.

Yes.  This will come after Paris.  Let the 24th come and we will try
to get some docs in place.

Keep up the great work Et!  Let us know so we can proofread the pages.

Also, perhaps start with collecting the links so that we can make
certain that the links work.

Further still, the DocumentTeam has a pretty decent layout, but
I think we can do even better...
