While removing the German translation and starting a new one from
scratch I stomped over this one:
Covering `testing':
<DD>This area contains packages that are destined to become part of the
stable distribution above. They have either not been fully tested (and
could therefore have undiscovered important bugs) or have not been around
long enough to make it into the stable distribution.
This is just plain wrong. I've changed it into
<DD>This area contains packages that are destined to become part of the
next stable distribution. Packages that haven't been included from
unstable (see below) have not been around long enough to make it
into the testing distribution or depend on packages which are not
yet part of this distribution yet.
Hmm, for unstable it says:
<DD>This area contains packages that haven't had sufficient testing or
have severe bugs (some that might even cause damage to your system).</DD>
which sounds quite negative. I have changed it to:
<DD>This area contains packages that are currently developed by
Debian. All new packages and updates are uploaded to this
distribution. Once a package stabilizes, doesn't have any release
critical bugs and its dependencies are fulfilled in testing, it is
copied to the testing distribution. Packages in unstable are
generally untested and could
have severe bugs (some that might even cause damage to your system).</DD>
