wrongdoc was difficult to maintain because of the tidy-ffi
dependency and the HTML5 changes in Darkfish could not be
handled well by Tidy.
olddoc is superior as it generates leaner HTML which loads faster,
requires less scrolling and less processing power to render.
Aesthetic comparisons are subjective of course but completely
unimportant compared to speed and accessibility.
The presence of images and CSS on the old (Darkfish-based) site
probably set unreasonable expectations as to my ability and
willingness to view such things. No more, the new website is
entirely simple HTML which renders well with even the wimpiest
browser.

I like make :D

wrongdoc eliminates JavaScript from our website and also
enables us to cut down on our management scripts/code for
supporting the project.

Several bikeshed reasons brought me to this point:
* I like the README.html layout more than any default index.html
even if it's using README content. Having links on the side
helps navigation IMHO.
* publish_docs preserves timestamps to improve cache hit rate
* git is used to maintain the manifest at packaging/release-time
so my changesets have less noise in them
* git is used to generate history files (from tag messages),
this is a more DRY approach to me.
* I don't like the ".txt" suffix being translated to "_txt.html" in
URLs. I don't like the ".txt" suffix in general.
* I don't like Manifest.txt showing up in my RDoc
