There is at least one 'bad' (invalid) link in a web page on the production server. We need to check to see if there are others. Can we automate this check as part of a release? Can we include a few scripts in a library that are called automatically (once a week?) to check for us?

    http://validator.w3.org/checklink will check any links on the front-facing part of the site... anything that requires a login, however, will not be checked.

    Right now, the only broken link it finds is on line 210 of faq.php, to http://www.comtor.org/features , which does not exist.

    Ok, this bug (and one other) will be on our discussion list for the next meeting. Additionally, they will be the first two fixed - and done so prior to use of the update mechanism.
