The keyboard warning is not necessary anymore.

Yes, but we will probably have some pages at http://iso.qa.ubuntu.com/
Documentation will need update at this moment.

I wasn't ware this Team was still active. I'm sure they will be ok with
the divert, thanks.

We can only use the Ubuntu building for futur ISO, not old. We (Jonathan
or me) can create a new 10.04, but it will need testing and maybe fixes.
I'm not sure it's so necessary, because you can do the install with the
current one, and do the updates as usual. I know it's long, but creating
and testing a new ISO will also need time.

I guess only 32 and 64 bits are available for daily build, and alternate
and armel (?) are produced only for releases (Alpha, Beta etc ..)
