Note that Richard replied to me private with a JSON array of this form:

chronology = [{"hash":"xxxxxxxxxx","vers":"3.31.0","date":2020.0398},
{"hash":"18db032d05","vers":"3.30.1","date":2019.7748},
{"hash":"c20a353364","vers":"3.30.0","date":2019.7557},
{"hash":"fc82b73eaa","vers":"3.29.0","date":2019.5202},
{"hash":"884b4b7e50","vers":"3.28.0","date":2019.2875},
{"hash":"bd49a8271d","vers":"3.27.2","date":2019.1506},
...]

So with a little gymnastic to recover the date, and given the hashes,
all the currently "hardcoded" <td><tr> elements can also be generated
from this JSON array.

Of course, some people disable JavaScript, so "server-side" rendering
might be preferred.

Interesting, thanks for the submission. --DD
