OK. We'll have a 'retired' section in the output tree (visible on
the web). I only created the 'retired' section of the source tree,
but it's fine and easy. The 'retired' documents will not be
automatically updated.

If we reject a document, why would we want to publish it under
tldp.org? I am not crazy about this idea.
Or do you mean that we should have a place in the source tree where
we store the 'rejected' documents?
