Thanks Bram - this makes sense. And to answer your thought above; we typically 
do this a lot (publish whole directories using rsync) with some home grown 
scripts right now but with no time to maintain that code - that's what got me 
looking at Aap (which in all other respects is mighty impressive so far!).
