This evening on IRC I noted that the bookmark for the release notes
now resulted in a 404 with the new site.
Fortunately the error page is a welcome page designed to handle people
looking for 'old' links to documentation.
Sadly, the old release notes link is non-version specific, while the
new URL to release notes is version specific. I filed a bug[1] and
Christopher Aillon replied and indicated that essentially at least
until F14, this is not something we can fix in the bookmarks package.
He additionally created a trac ticket[2] and added some significant
commentary there that I think is useful for reading. I don't know how
we want to proceed or if we think that the 404 page is adequate, but
thought I'd bring it to the list for discussion, commentary, decision
making.

I had suggested a stopgap measure earlier, of putting a prominent link
to the current Release Notes 'above the fold' in the Welcome page.
Should be relatively easy to make PO for that too, if the link text is
something that's already translated, like the document title.
