done.


 and notify me of any others that I'll need to change

there are two changes to be made on www.d.o/devel/debian-jr. They both point
to "mailing list archives" as l.d.o/debian-jr. I suggest any reference
to mailing list archives should point be referenced as:

<a href="http://news.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.jr">mail
archives</a> on gmane.org or from the <a
href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-jr">official debian archives</a>
(beware of heavy spam). 

or some similar thing. I don't think it would be right to completely
excise the official archives. .02.

This occurs in two places: 4th item on devel/debian-jr and the only
item on devel/debian-jr/news
