I'm not disputing that there should be a section about things that are 
*only* to do with a particular release, or that its front page should 
be localized; they're both good things. I was talking about the 
top-level navigation, which leaves no obvious place for pages like "How 
do I upgrade from Ubuntu 5.04 to 6.06?", and (once Edgy is released) 
"Which Ubuntu release is right for me?".
