Package: www.debian.org Severity: minor Here I suggest to change the summary of [email protected] in list page on website and an expression in Important Debian Security Advisories section on Debian Project News.
1. Summary of [email protected] on website [email protected]'s list page on website [1] summary says, "Announcements of updates to stable Updates to stable packages will be announced on this list." Isn't this ambiguous? For non-native English speaker like Japanese, it looks updates for stable section is announced on the list. But it is not correct, isn't it? For such purpose, people use [email protected] [2]. Properly speaking, updates for "stable-update section" is announced on [email protected] [3], isn't it? [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-stable-announce/ [2] http://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce/ [3] http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/release-notes/ch-whats-new.en.html#stable-updates I know that [email protected] list is successor of [email protected] [4,5]. From this view point, should the summary of [email protected] be like as shown bellow? "Announcements for the stable-update section Announcements relating to the stable-update section include new uploads and changes." [4] http://lists.debian.org/debian-volatile-announce/2012/msg00000.html [5] http://lists.debian.org/debian-volatile-announce/ 2. Expression in Debian Project News (DPN) Latest DPN saying in Important Debian Security Advisories section that [6], "If you need to be kept up to date about security advisories released by the Debian Security Team, please subscribe to the security mailing list (and the separate backports list, and stable updates list) for announcements." In this statement, "stable updates list" is linked to the page of [email protected]. [6] http://www.debian.org/News/weekly/2012/11/#dsa "stable updates" means a "stable-update section". So, "stable update list" should be "stable-update section's list". this is clearer expression I think. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.5 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Regards, AYANOKOUZI, Ryuunosuke -- AYANOKOUZI, Ryuunosuke <[email protected]>
