In fact, for almost everybody, it is just another archive.
The *only* class of people for which non-US/main is a problem is those
based in the U.S. who wish to burn a CD and ship it back outside the
U.S. I don't know why we pander to them. Let's move the archive
outside the US, merge main and non-US/main, and let them sort out
which they can put on their CD.
"non-US" is a terrible name.
