Localized docs files

[Jérôme Charron <je...@gmail.com>]

Hi

While commiting some changes in the /src/web/style/nutch-page.xml, I saw 
that the localized files generated in /docs directory were commited in SVN.
Is there a reason for that? 
(It seems it is not needed since these files are generated from the xml 
files while building the war).
If no, I will remove them from the svn repository.

Thanks

Jerome

These pages used to also be the primary Nutch website and documentation. 
  Now those duties have been passed to Forrest (with no localized 
versions).  In particular, the translations of the "about" content has 
not yet been ported to Forrest.  The version on the website is well 
indexed by search engines.  Try searching for "nutch" on Google, Yahoo 
or MSN in French, German or many other languages and you'll find one of 
these "about" pages as the first hit.  Lots of folks have linked to 
these too.

So, once we convert these "about" pages to Forrest and place redirects 
on the website then maybe we can remove these from SVN.
