The HTML version with automatically generated navigation is finished:
http://styx.livinglogic.de/~walter/www.python.org-converted/
The conversion script extracts all links in all sidebars and tries
to created a sitemap tree from that.
(The generated site structure is available from
http://styx.livinglogic.de/~walter/www.python.org-converted/pages.py
)
Unfortunately it seems to be pretty hopeless to go in this direction.
2/3rds of the pages don't even appear in the sidebar. Most appear in
a strange spot, because they have a "shortcut link" from some page etc.
A better solution might be to keep the link structure as it is and
transform it to a real tree structure piece by piece.
Anyway, the source is available at
