Re: CSP policy for navigation events

Indeed. I thought someone had set up auto-publishing on the repository, but
I was wrong. Sorry about that.

I uploaded https://www.w3.org/TR/2018/WD-CSP3-20181015/ a minute ago, and
maybe clever folks can help me get publication more automated at TPAC next
week.
