Not a single one, no. The URLs *all* changed. There is not a single one
that's the same. We may be able to do a single rewrite rule for most of the
module-*.html URLs, but everything else -- and there is quite a lot of
'else' in the 2.5-and-earlier docs -- needs a better mapping. Feel free to
send me that mapping :-)
