Will do.     Were the versions on ruleml.org up-to-date?

Hmmm.  That's a nice idea to put it up there.  Actually, it might be
nice to link to the version of the page that the TR was generated from,
so its easier to see changes.  I have that available.  I don't think I
can do this for this round, but I'll try to do it in the future.

Maybe instead of showing the URL, which looks like:
      http://www.w3.org/2005/rules/wiki/index.php?title=BLD&oldid=12707

it would be better like:

 This version:
     http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/PR-rif-bld-20100511/ (on wiki)
 Latest version:
     http://www.w3.org/TR/rif-bld/
 Previous version:
     http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/CR-rif-bld-20091001/ (color-coded diff)

where "on wiki" would be the link.  We may get a lot of pushback for
doing that on mature documents (like PRs and RECs) but I still think
it's a good idea.
