I agree, we should do a redirect. I had not planned on changing the physical dir until
4.1 as that is when the new docs would be getting used. 6 in one... if you feel the itch,
go for it.
Changing the directory name is easy. For the redirects we will need "service
desk" to give us a hand (afaik).
Speaking of re-directs, I thought I change the stable link, but realized that we might
need some more redirects.
Currently the main URL looks like this:
http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/stable/core/reference/en-US/html_single/
In 4.0 the main docs are in 'manual' so the URL would be
http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/stable/core/manual/en-US/html_single/
Do we want to stick with 'manual'? If so we might want to consider another
redirect. Or we just
rename manual to reference. Was the directory rename intentional?

http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/stable/core/ points to 3.6.9.Final docs. Should it point

http://docs.jboss.org/hibernate/core/4.0/ (or

See above

the contents of the documentation directory from the distribution into the staging
directory for rsync-ing. The only change I had to make after copying was to change hem/en
to hem/en-US. I haven't looked into this, but I imagine that would be an easy thing to
fix.
We should update that in the source tree. But to be honest, hem docs should really just
go away as a separate thing. Their content should be merged into the main docs.
+1 HEM should go away. I thought the relevant parts are already merged.
