--- Comment #5 from Janne Blomqvist <jb at gcc dot gnu.org> --- I looked through some mails in the archives, and I learned that the current wwwdocs uses metahtml, which hasn't been maintained for years and years, and doesn't even compile anymore. Ugh! For an even more drastic solution than the proposed xhtml -> html5 conversion, what about converting to use, say, sphinx (www.sphinx-doc.org)? There are certainly other tools for generating static websites, but sphinx is maintained and fairly widely used for software documentation style sites. E.g. everything on readthedocs.org, and the Linux kernel (https://lwn.net/Articles/692704/ and https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ ). I'm slightly biased, as we use sphinx (with readthedocs, but with our own DNS name) for a project at work, and we're quite happy with it. The feasibility of this of course depends on being able to convert the existing html docs to rst (or markdown) in some (semi-)automated fashion. Maybe pandoc is up to it..? If you think this is not a completely mad idea, I can have a go at it and see if I get some preliminary conversion done with a modest amount of effort. (and yes, sphinx does generate html5, so using sphinx would fix this PR as well. :) )
