Hello simon.  Thank you for the patch, even though I disagree.

The term 'release' seems technical and hard-to-translate.  Stable may
raise wrong expectations, but one word cannot convey all the
difference between the images anyway.  I think the criticism of our QA
is too negative, even though more QA would have been better.

However there are few reasons to read the stable manual.  Hmm.

This should be

,(link-more #:label (G_ (string-append "Read manual " (latest-guix-version) "")))

with string-append like further below for

     ,(G_ (string-append "Page " (number->string active-page) " of "
                         (number->string pages) ". Go to another page: ")))

There is a typo, but more importantly the meaning of development
images is hard to understand.

This is a difficult topic. ;)
