- The documents under doc/ can be auto-updated if you have a local
  website CVS copy from e.g.
  :pserver:anonymous@anonscm.debian.org:/cvs/webwml .  (See
  https://www.debian.org/devel/website/using_cvs .)

  Once you've set up some symlinks, and you've updated doc/Makefile,
  you should be able to run e.g.

   % make -C doc constitution.1.6.wml

  to get a copy of constitution.1.6.wml.  Once that's there, run

   % svn add constitution.1.6.wml
   % svn commit -m 'imported constitution.1.6.wml'

  .  Or use the "update" make target.

- The updating of documents under doc/ currently (2008) only works for english but
  could be easily expanded to provide all translations. Do we
  want to do this or should this be handled by the doc-debian-XX
  packages ?

  Note: some of the doc-debian-XX packages are really out of date
  and don't provide the same content that is available in doc-debian
