Hello, The other day, Eric pointed out to me that some of the manuals that we have posted in different languages are quite out of date -- in fact, the partial French translation apparently dates from version 1.38.
As a consequence, starting with a few days ago with what is currently the development version 3.1.8, which will be released as version 5.0.0 sometime probably in January, I have reset all the foreign translations of the manual (French, Spanish, and German) to be identical to the current English manual. As we go forward, it would be really nice to have up to date translations. However, it is a lot of work. With the new git repo, it is much easier to maintain several versions of the manual and quite easily upload them, and going foward, we will maintain old versions of the manual in separate links on the web site. If any of you would like to start working on the previous translations to bring them up to date, it would be great. The only requirement would be to translate a whole chapter at a time. Once that is done, it is relatively easy to post it. If any of you want to checkout a version of the manual that has the old translations (it might be easier to start from an old one than starting from nothing), you can checkout the repo, then checkout a branch from the tag "Reset-translations", and you will have what existed prior to me copying the English over all the translations. Please note, there was a major re-organization of the manuals in version 3.0.0, and since then, I have re-organized them again in 3.1.8. Although there will be additional changes to the English version of the manual prior to release, there will not be any more major re-organizations until after the next major release. I hope you all had a great holiday season and survived seeing the New Year in ...
