This is what I did to get a working html and posted here https://discordapp.com/channels/880322471608344597/1157298242212597781
Since the 3.1 collection does not have the html file like the 2.5 collections (and prior) did there is a workable solution: 1. Download the 3.1 collection 2. copy from your 2.5 collection directory the 1.read_me... file and subdirectory into the 3.1 directory 3. Rename them from v2r5 o v3r1 4. Edit the htm file and change 2.5 to 3.1 and v2r5 to v3r1 5. save it and your good to go Caveats - any new products/pubs that are new to 3.1 won't be there (e.g. AI, DSFS wasn't there, and probably more). This process does not change the order number for the pubs but will fix the url for the related pdf. Ymmv but probably not by much Lionel B.

I'm thinking about taking the 2.5 .html file produced by IBM to see if I modify it for 3.1; after all many of the files will have similar names. But I'll wait a while longer to see if anything is forthcoming from IBM.
