[Evergreen-web-team] EG Site Map stuff

 Slightly off topic, but related to migration. 

I created a branch of the .git website repo that allows each page to be referenced with a GET parameter that strips a given web page of it's header, sidebars and footer. This renders the resulting page theequivalent of a node->body element. When it comes time to pull this stuff in, we could snag it all in a cURL loop.

Just FYI. I submited a sample patch to Dev a while back but then got busy again and didn't push it.
