hmm, i put a blank row inbetween the major versions instead. if they're separate tables, then the column & table widths aren't maintained between tables, so you end up with slightly shifted & different sized tables. if you think the blank rows are a bit too tight still, i could easily make them the same height as the other rows by putting a nbsp in. > Also, some simple intro text seems desirable (edit as you see fit): > > <p>Below are links to the manual for all released versions > of <a href="/software/automake/">GNU Automake</a>. > The <a href="/software/automake/manual/">current manual</a> > is also available separately. > > And maybe an outro too: > > <p>Above are links to the manual for all released versions > of <a href="/software/automake/">GNU Automake</a>. > > Wdyt? sure > The copyright at the bottom says 2020.

Can you check? it's a couple of things gnulib's gendocs template is out of date upstream: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2022-01/msg00179.html and our copy is out of date (even before that): automake$ grep Copyright lib/gendocs_template Copyright (C) 2006-2021 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <p>Copyright © 2020 Free Software Foundation, Inc.</p> so i guess once gnulib merges my update, i'll pull it into automake, and commit the changes to all the indexes. -mike
