See SVN ./installer/debian/rules for how and mail from joeyh for why :-)

OK, I did forget i18n, but I _did_ CC to all individual translators _and_
involved language lists, including d-l10n-spanish@l.d.o (which I would
expect you follow).

See answer from joeyh.

I am not very happy about Release Notes personally. I have send Dutch
translations three times (once to d-doc, once to d-l10n-dutch and once to
robster after speaking with him on #d-boot).
robster promised me he would add my translation to CVS, but it's still not
there. (I can't commit myself as I'm not a DD.)
Also I did an extensive review of the release notes, again no reaction...
Cheers,
FJP
