Hello,
This is the bug to properly request the restoration of the historic News
items that were removed about 6 months ago in commits e92471ba and
be8c189a, until the content is hosted permanently elsewhere and
redirects are put in place to preserve the established URIs.

<https://lists.debian.org/debian-project/2025/07/msg00007.html>,
<https://lists.debian.org/debian-www/2025/07/msg00030.html>.
Restorative MR is here:
<https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/webwml/-/merge_requests/1044>
As I've wrote elsewhere, I am committed to working on a solution that
satisfies the debian-www's team to simplify the present-day website,
*and* preserve the old content and their established URIs, but I urge
you to restore them in the meantime.
Thank you!
