I tested linkchecker and webcheck (the tool used by Holger for the
debconf13.debconf.org website) on a little website.
Each works out-of-the-box from the debian packages and produces static
HTML files.

So in order to have the pages publicly available, the steps are:
- putting the right command in crontab. For example, in the www-data
crontab, the command could be:
  cd /web/document/root/ ; webcheck --force --ignore-robots
http://www.debian.org/
- setting a configuration file for the webserver currently installed


If you are interested, I can execute them on debian.org so everyone
can compare the results but I'm not sure the admin will be happy if
all the website is browsed twice...
