Prompted by Jeroen van Wolffelaar I propose to include the following
text in the Release Notes to make users aware that non-us is being
phased out.

*non-us being phased out*
For the sarge release most cryptographic packages that were formerly
in the non-us part of the archive, have been moved into the regular archive.
Currently only a few packages are left in the contrib and non-free sections
of the non-us archive. If you have lines referring to non-us in your
/etc/sources.list, you may want to check if they can be removed. Chances are
that non-us will be discontinued completely in the near future.


Minus the typo you're already aware of, and s/non-us/non-US/: yeah,
looks fine. Sarge will definitely have no packages in non-US, and at a
certain moment the apt-get sources lines for non-US *may* start to give
errors (or may not, and just be empty).


Well, with apt 0.6 the non-US archives already give an error[well really a warning] as they are signed with an expired pre-compromise key.
