So you think that users, reading the security information in a document
that is clearly labeled as being for 2.6.0-pl2, will conclude that there
won't be any bugs or security announcements later? I am not sure to agree with you.

Besides, we have localized versions of the doc for some languages. It would
be interesting to have the localized version of the security alerts too.

Also, I find it important that the documents we produce be in the CVS,
especially for matters about security.

But I am not against a new Security section, with relevant links.
