So I'm looking for some volunteers to do the following:
* re-work the current xslt setup such that it supports translations.
Ideally, we'd like something that shows each of the two language codes
on top[1]
* We need a methodology on how to store the translated summaries and be
able to display them based on the LANG variable. So, someone needs to
propose a sane methodology to do this. Any volunteers for this? It
will require that you talk with Danilo Segan and working on how to
arrange everything.
* This one is more of a general help. I need someone who knows xslt and
some programming. Gnome Summary, the recent Gnome Journal effort, and
the Gnome Documentation project have joined to work on a similar goal.
That is, the ability to translate docbook/xslt text into other
languages. Right now, the Gnome manual and our documentation is not
translated. We need to make translation work.
Why you should join:
The leader of the GDP (Gnome Documentation Project) Shaun McCance (he's
on the list) is an expert at docbook and various other w3 technologies.
If you want to learn from the master, here is your chance. Shaun's
doing some interesting things with help systems and the technology that
he's using is going to be similar to whats going to be happening with
gnome summary and gnome journal. But he needs help. The more help the
better. IT's one of those situations that if you have a lot of people
we have a chance of building some thing very cool. I don't think it's
hard to get into it. But if you're looking or a project that will
expand your knowledge in web and document technologies, this is one of
them. (I know I'm learning a lot already)
So if you're interested, please either respond to this message, or send
mail to shaunm gnome org We really do need the help because we can
really kick some ass here.
Let me know about the other ones too.
Thanks guys!
