Package: www.debian.org
Severity: normal

Hi.

New sections in the archive are not mentioned in the sections list page [1] : education, introspection, metapackages.
This situation has some drawbacks:

- the debian policy [2] points to [1] to find the sections definitions, that does not appear there.

- some packages are already declared to belong to these sections (see eg. geogebra, girl1.2-gcr-3), so they cannot be found through their section.

Thanks,
Alexis Bienvenue.

Hi.

I just rolled out a new version of packages.debian.org and I think
this issue is fixed.
