I was operating under the assumption that the translationed versions
showed up automatically, as they did on the old website code.  I wasn't
aware that they didn't, anymore.  In 4 years (or more)?  this is the
first time anyone has brought it up.

The chain to find the translations is announcement --> presskit -->
translations --> press page.  Which is pretty obscure if you have to
find them that way.
