To date, we have requested that official Debian ftp sites have a
soft link from / to the actual archive so that people can access
Debian by http://ftp..debian.org/debian
A few potential sites have complained about this. Also, the link
dissapears from some sites occassionally.

The proposed changes have been implemented. Please look through the
pages and fill in/correct anything you find wrong or lacking.

- for the short term, until we develop an internationalization
policy, I have created a new section off the main page called
'Debian goes International'.
- additions to why_debian.html
