This patch fixes a few more documentation errors in 3.1.6. Some links
in the FAQ were relative when the should have been absolute. The links
for the Standard for Robot Exclusion were outdated and should have been
fixed back in December when I first noticed the problem. Finally, there
are updates to FAQ 1.15 and the where.html file.
Apply this patch in your main htdig-3.1.6 source directory using the
command: patch -p0 < this-message-file
