... and Drupal.

Well, I installed the gsitemap module, which is so far only released for 4.7.x, but whose CVS repository already has a 5.x-compatible version... with a bit of meddling required.

Finally, I've been able to submit a sitemap and verification page for Google (that "google495953..." thing), and also look at the request logs to see what exactly Google requests from my site:

These are:

• google...html
• noexist_...html

Apparently, the noexist_ file is meant to return a 404, in order to check if the server returns a pseudo-404 page with code 404, which would make this check impossible.

So now I know more.
