Description
We've seen a couple problems come up recently where the ref-guide had broken links ot javadocs.
In some cases these are because people made typos in java classnames / pathnames while editing the docs - but in other cases the problems were that the docs were correct at one point, but then later the class was moved/renamed/removed, or had it's access level downgraded from public to private (after deprecation)
I've worked up a patch with some ideas to help us catch these types of mistakes - and in general to hook the "bare-bones HTML" validation (which does not require jekyll or any non-ivy managed external dependencies) into ant precommit
Details to follow in comment/patch...
