The 00-INDEX files are supposed to give a summary of all files present
in a directory, but these files are horribly out of date and their
usefulness is brought into question.

A few years back it was mentioned that these files were no longer
needed, and they have since then grown further out of date, so perhaps
it is time to just throw them out.
Good idea.

.rst is becoming more common and these 00-INDEX files
are unnecessary and occasionally misleading.
Ok, should I respin and clean up all the other files referencing 00-INDEX 
and send to a wider audience?
