<whatever>://svn.xiph.org/svn/xiph/websites/xiph/... ? Too much xiph in 
it, and I'm blindly copying what we have in /www minus the redundant 
"www" :)

You're not misremembering. That said, I think we need to revisit that 
decision and the whys behind it; it's rather difficult to guide users 
of one of our products into using another. Personally, I'd like to push 
for integration of our stuff with our other stuff; a network of 
not-visibly-related xiph sites doesn't do that.

<p>(All this ignores our unassimilated FLAC brethren, but that should be 
fixed in due time...)
