[Live-demo] Translations and Proj4 documentation

Hi Julien,

proj4 will not be removed from OSGeo-Live, since it is a dependency of 
many other projects, but it will not be included in the documentation 
pages, unless we get an update. The deadline for the final documentation 
is July 3rd (not the same as for beta1, which is June 21st), so there is 
some more time.
The pages you propose to use look good to me.
You do not need to worry about the translations yet, there is another 
deadline for those (few days before the release, ~July 20).

Regards,
Angelos
