You better watch out because I've been hacking on that in CVS also.
I assume what you mean is the organizational update, right?
After going thru a little bit and updating the system (so that the
links work right for LINGUA != C, for www.debian.org distribution,
with Bruce Sass correcting the file names), I more than ever believe
that the "downloadable files" section really does need to be
re-organized and restructured.
However, we need to synchronize a little better, or we're going to get
into nasty conflict situations in en/inst-methods.sgml and
defaults.ent.
I would ask you to do any of the high-level hacking and commit that
even if things aren't complete, if possible.

Change the date in the changelog. It shouldn't prevent building.
Things build fine on my box.
