People are talking about the Squeeze release notes being nearly ready for a call for translations. I hope they are remembering that before the call for translations there needs to be a quick debian-l10n-english proofreading run-through, and before *that* we need to come up with some factually accurate content.
When I look at the version on display at http://www.debian.org/releases/squeeze/i386/release-notes/ I see something so jam-packed with stale material that I wouldn't know where to start reporting bugs, other than perhaps to recommend throwing out chapter 2, chapter 3, much of chapter 4, chapter 5, and of course appendix C. Is there a version somewhere that's nearly ready? Last time it was svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/ddp/manuals/trunk/release-notes, but if that copy contains any improvements then I'm not spotting them. It has always seemed to me that using a summary of the notable differences between Release-A and Release-B as the basis for our summary of the notable differences between Release-B and Release-C is a rather effective labour-wasting strategy. -- JBR For trifling occasions it is better to accomplish things simply by yelling - _Hagakure_, Yamamoto Tsunetomo (1716) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
