Translation of gnome user guide / FAQ files

[Jatin Nansi <jatinnansi myrealbox com>]

Hi all

As per step 2 of http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gtp/tasks.html - to 
translate gnome to a language - i need to translate general user 
documents - which includes The GNOME User's Guide and the GNOME User 
FAQ. But I could not find any documented method which I can follow to 
translate these to another language.

I have seen that these documents are primarily displayed in yelp and are 
found in /usr/share/gnome/help on my RH9 system. These are all in XML 
and inter - hyperlinked.

My problem is that its going to be very troublesome to translate these 
XML files in a regular text editor. So is there any simpler method for 
this job ?

Also - how will these translations be organised on the disk ? The 
english documents are in /usr/share/gnome/help/user-guide/C. So is the C 
directory the locale and Japanese (for example) will be stored in 
/usr/share/gnome/help/user-guide/ja ?


TIA
