No, they have not the same content! I explained the necessary steps for
newcomers in a separate mail (but used once a wrong revision for the
translation-check header as Frans noticed), please follow them to get the last
English source of both affected files and compare these. They are very similar
but there are changes. Maybe you compared the HTML files (instead of WML
files)?

very, very similar != identical
In http://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2008/10/msg00140.html I wrote:
"Since both documents are nearly identical I suggest you send us
social_contract.wml as well."
nearly != completely
If I had noticed that both files are identical I had of course committed
your translation twice.

No, I don't loose my patience and I hope you're not angry with me. If this
will really happen one time be sure that this was not my intention and feel
free to ignore me :-)

Ah, so you translated english/social_contract.wml? In
http://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2008/10/msg00138.html you wrote:
"This time it's the correct file, /hebrew/social_contract.1.1.wml"
I'm confused :-)
(That's why I ask for the file name so that we always know where we have
to commit.)
Looking at the content, you translated social_contract.1.1.wml which
is different from social_contract.wml.

OK, I will do your work and bring the file in sync with the current English
one. As the changes only affect HTML I should be able to do it.
I also suggest we continue discussion via private mail to reduce useless
discussions on the list.
