7 Well, my aim was to prevent bugreports for docs that are "no longer
8 maintained" like articles and old Handbooks (but I got a bit confused
9 and probably thought that old HBs contain all sections without new

12 However, I think that we can make add some warning/disclaimer to the
13 republished articles. And an easy way to allow Lead Translator to make
14 some document marked as "obsolete" would be worth too, IMHO.
