Gah, I screwed this one up. All the other 00-INDEX files list
themselves as the first entry, ala:

See?

(This broke my index.html generator script, which uses the 00-INDEX line
to split "header info that does not contain files you link to" from
"alternating file/description lines" which come after it. Yes, I broke
my own script.)

Sorry I didn't catch this quickly, I had to get on a plane and come to
Scale. (Handing out flyers at the OpenVZ booth.)

Let me know if you want a replacement patch or a patch on top of this one.

Thanks,

Rob
