It's a bunch of files that isn't supposed to be processed by dinstall, but
installed by hand. I provided a relnotes.tar.gz with upgrade-* directories
and release-notes.* files in them, and Richard tar xzf'ed it in
dists/potato/main.
This time, though, one other manual operation should be done: documents in
upgrade-{arm,powerpc} should be moved to disks-{arm,powerpc}, respectively,
since those release notes aren't related to upgrading, just "what's new" and
"new installations" (the latter is a pointer to the Installation manual).

No. (nor vice versa)
But the CD images are.

Well, why not have it up on the FTP site right now, so that people can check
them and report any errors?
