I can see one in the header links and one in the text. Both point to
http://wiki.xapian.org/

It *is* indeed set to ask for french pages first, and MoinMoin is giving
me this page: http://wiki.xapian.org/PageAccueil

I am also for the removal of language alternatives. So far everything is
in English and starting with translations do use a lot of resources,
which I don't think anybody would want to put in this right now.
