[Laszlo-dev] Does anyone care about the "Internal Index"? [Was: link to release notes from trunk nightly broken]

As best I can tell, /index.jsp is intended to be useful to 'internal  
development' by having more stuff than the distribution index (which  
is a filtered copy of quick-index, which is a styled copy of the  
explorer nav).  Having a different index for internal vs. distribution  
builds is confusing and probably just asking for trouble.

If no one cares about this differentiation any more, lets get rid of  
the .jsp and just generate /index.html directly from the explorer nav,  
appropriately styled and filtered.

DEVELOPERS:  Speak now if you want to keep index.jsp!
