PNG images in the navigation bar were recently removed in favour of CSS.
But now I see that you refer to other images in Pics and lossless size
reduction.

I am. It looks interesting, I was just not aware of this bug report.
(I did a similar task for another project recently, but it was necessary
to first write a patch against ImageMagick so that it accepts my large
pixmaps and it is able to reduce these :-)

Most likely. It would be nice if you could check for such bugs and maybe
also provide patches when necessary.

you don't need to be a developer, have you found this information somewhere?
I remember I thought in the past the same but you can close all bugs you want
as described in
http://www.debian.org/Bugs/Developer#closing

Please try to close these yourself if you are *really* sure it's save.

No! The report is about a missing indication that the page is not up-to-date,
not about the translations itself!

Maybe, but since the bug is from our webmaster I suggest not to touch it.

He, this patch affects me :-)
Forgot about it but it should be reassigned to the proper package.
If I remember correctly my patch was silently ignored ...
Currently PS and PDF files for developers-reference are disabled, don't know
why.

I'm really not the right person to analyse M$ security. But the old Windows 95
reference should really be removed.

"Windows 95 has essentially no security. NT and XP have shown themselves to be
very bad also."

Please propose a fix but do not close it.
