Re: [PATCH] stable.html should link '-current' to 'faq/current.html'

I disagree with this one.

current.html is about migrating from previous -release to -current.
That is NOT what stable.html concerns itself with.  A more appropriate
thing to link to would be plus.html.  Better than that might be
faq5.html#Flavors, which defines the topic in more detail, but I
don't think any of them really improves the content of the page,
just makes reading and maintaining more difficult.

A link should point to content relevant to the content already on a
page.  Linking to a page with a similar name doesn't really do it.
