Thanks.
I've had a look to this and made some tests.

The layout and strings look fine for me. The POT/PO templates update well.

The pages seem to build well (I didn't build the whole website locally
but tried a good portion of /english and some other languages).

* Looking at the resulting times shown in the html pages, and
researching a bit, I found this in /devel/website/working:

---
GEN_TIME="true"
    Sets the date on the resulting files to the timestamp of the
generated files, instead of the timestamp of the source file.
---

(I didn't know this existed)

This variable is considered, in the MR, only in the webwml_built_time
function (correct). The issue I see is that the variable is used in few
pages (see attached file containing a list of the English page that have
the variable set).

I am not sure how to go now from here; if reviewing which pages should
have the GEN_TIME="true" option in the header, or just forget about the
GEN_TIME variable (delete it in every page) and simplify the functions
in ctime.wml template to reuse the code that is run now when
GEN_VARIABLE is not present for the webwml_modified_time, and the code
that now is run when GEN_VARIABLE is present and has "yes", for the
webwml_built_time.

Note: there is some more code related to the GEN_VARIABLE in
/english/template/debian/footer.wml that we would need to adapt if we
decide to remove the variable.

Cheers
