changes to Debian's web page
I didn't know were to send this, so as the changes are related to debian-cd I'm posting it here with the aim that somebody with powers to modify the web can do it. These are changes that I believe should be done because of the changes in the cd image production that we've had lately, there are new images like dvd, and also some paths have changed, I'm noting the web page and then the changes I suggest: http://www.debian.org/distrib/ Maybe a note about the DVD images should be put here. http://www.debian.org/CD/faq/ In Are DVD images of Debian available? section: we should modify the paragraph where we state that only unofficial DVD images for... to state that there are official DVD images for testing. In Where are the CDs for architecture X? section: I think that the first two paragraphs should be rebuilt into one where we don't mention the stable distro as in the link we are using for the stable distro we also have links for testing, also, I plan to remove cdimage-unofficial.debian.net in the near future, so it is better if we can remove it now. In The software on the official CDs is outdated - why don't you release a new version? section: the last paragraph should be rewritten to let people know that there is also official testing cds and dvds, and maybe add a link so that people can find the jigdo images. http://www.debian.org/CD/jigdo-cd/ The link for the cd jigdos should now point to http://gluck.debian.org/cdimage/testing/cd/jigdo-area/ in here: * Official jigdo files for the testing distribution on CD (all architectures, regenerated weekly) http://www.debian.org/CD/http-ftp/ We are announcing the unofficial dvd images even though they are only available through jigdo, while the official ones, available the same way at http://gluck.debian.org/cdimage/testing/dvd/ are not announced. More enfasis on the official images, even though the only ones we have available without jigdo are the netinst ones (I think that the netinst images should be announced in this page having a link to the netinst page from this one). I think we should make clear that the unofficial ones are unsupported and that people wanting to test or install testing should use the official version, not the unofficial one. remove: Another group of people in Spain produce their own set of CD images for the testing distribution. You should probably only use the images accessible via this site if the fsn.hu images are not suitable for you, for example because you need images for a non-i386 architecture. Well, guess that is all for now. Regards... -- Manty/BestiaTester - http://manty.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
3.0r2.01 Update CDs?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi all! After my rsync today I noticed that there were some new jigdo-Templates for the update CDs. Looked around a bit but I didn't find whats the difference? By the way, is it possible to build a security update cd with debian-cd scripts? I've been asked for such a cd :-) Have a nice weekend!
