Unfortunately it's not enough :

+ install -m 644 -p en/release-notes.alpha.html/ap-old-stuff.en.html [..] /org/www.debian.org/www/releases/lenny/alpha/release-notes/
install: omitting directory `en/release-notes.alpha.html/images'
make: *** [publish] Error 1
make: Leaving directory `/org/www.debian.org/release-notes/lenny'

I cannot find how to install recursively a directory.. (unless using cp && chmod)

On top of that, As spotted by Rhonda, the publish target always perform a
clean, which as a major impact on build load.
