Looks good.

It may make sense to follow the website here, i.e.

  docs/$file       for unset LANG
  docs/$foo/$file  for LANG=$foo

This is good if someone wants to browse them in a specific language.
It is not so good if only some documents exist in that language.

I still think it would be better to omit docs/ from the source code
tree.  It can be part of the website (which is in CVS) or in
its own CVS tree.
