Oh :(  Actually, as 'cql' is reserved and can only ever point at the
current CQL set, I thought that it was a fairly good trick for assigning
version.

That would now be at cql/context-sets/cql.html, ala Ray's preference for -
lowercase rather than camelCase (meaning that he can just unzip the whole
set of docs rather than searching for links to rename)
