Samy, Sj;<br><br>I second the recommendation of holding off on translation. Anne and I will be reworking much of the more prose-like (non-technical) material before this is finished. <br><br>However, we could be treating each activity as a separate document. I would imagine the technical text for an activity to be fairly static once agreed upon by the Developer. I have a login somewhere for pootle, but I haven't used it much. I assume that things are organized by passage?
<br><br>Let me know how I can best serve the translation community.<br><br>Seth<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Dec 6, 2007 11:10 PM, Samuel Klein <<a href="mailto:sj@laptop.org">sj@laptop.org</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>Hello Samy,<br><br>Thank you for the offer. I copy our localization list. We are currently<br>handling document translations such as this one offline, by connceting<br>translations of a given document on the wiki; see [[Demo notes/542]] for
<br>a simple example. (the templates for this sort of work could use an<br>update)<br><br>You can see a short set of "getting started" pages on the laptopgiving<br>site: <a href="http://www.laptopgiving.org/en/explore.php" target="_blank">

</a><br><br>Anne and Seth are still working on the above; there is still repetition in<br>some parts, and you may want to hold off on translation. I will post a<br>cleaner draft of the manual tomorrow.<br><br>(Anne/Micheal, I can't access the french translation of the 10-07 version
<br>from the google document... if you can, could you post that to the wiki?<br>cf <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Simplified_user_guide/lang-fr" target="_blank">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Simplified_user_guide/lang-fr</a>
