Yes, this would be part of a larger series. I'm happy to do the work, but I don't want to do it if it's just going to be rejected. The work is very straightforward, in almost all cases you simply replace the word index with the phrase staging area. The change is similar for the word cache. So I'm not sure what seeing it all at once would do for anybody. Are there one or two other files that you would like to see transformed to see as an example? If you're just looking for a sense of it, that should be enough. --- David A.Wheeler
