Jacques, You seem to be missing my point.
it doesn't matter whether a release contains only bug-fixes, improvements, new features or a combination of those to have a documentation start point under projects/ofbiz/site/ Stable is not something we release, but it is a link to a specific reference point in the main repo. In our case, the release. It is also not the branch in our repo where the release was taken from. So again my question: ' Why don't we use the release id under projects/ofbiz/site/'?
