I either translate everything on a page, or nothing at all. In case of the latter I am not going to copy anything to the translation's directory. Besides, I don't think it's a good idea to rely on a certain page being available, at least not without saying so in a README file. But isn't it possible to get the information from English, if /CD/releases/ isn't available in the current translation? >(Still, the old notes must remain on the website because there are a >lot of old Debian CDs out there, and from time to time people might >still use them to install a new system.) Indeed. If I want to install Debian on a new system I usually just use the first (potato) CD I can find in my pile of CDs... -- Regards, Kaare - <http://www.nightcall.dk/>
