No worries.  I've managed to eliminate 'mike' completely and
restructured things so the left nav bar looks much like the original wiki
with an entry for each branch's API documentation.  The site is also now
built as one complete site and it's much easier to just build the static
docs then add in the dynamic docs.  The makefile also has a dependency on
./temp/build-XX/source/asterisk-docs.xml so if it already exists (say if
you pre-copied core-en_US.xml to it) it won't do the download and extract.
 I just need to update the README and I'll push this up as a new branch so
you can take a look without disturbing the existing stuff.

Actually, I thought I did this already but it must have escaped my mind.
I'll get to it this week.
