The web page source is available via CVS. Currently you can only access the pages read-only with anonymous access: cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/webwml login cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/webwml checkout webwml I will be creating a web page about this eventually.
I'd like to see people start translating. To keep it organized, it will be easiest if each language has a coordinator and the group of translators for each language communicates between themselves (using the debian-<language> mailing lists if they like). Until/unless I work something better out, I will only be granting write priviledges to the coordinators for each language. To begin a translation, create a new language directory parallel to the english directory. Copy english/template/ to the new language dir. Start by translating the .wml template files. Once that is done, you can translate the files one at a time. Until others get write access to CVS, I will have to install the translations - so choose coordinators quickly. Oh yeah, also copy english/.wmlrc and change the CUR_LANG variable in it. I'm looking into using the -i option of the modules file to report changes to the files in the english directory to debian-www. That way, the translators will know when the english version of a file has been changed so they can update the translation. You will need to install wml to compile the .wml files into html. There is a Makefile in webwml/english/ which will take care of everything and even put the html file in debian.org/ (that's ../../debian.org from english/). Copy it to the new language dir, change the LANG variable and only uncomment the lines following 'all:' for the the .wml files which are translated. 'make' should then update everything. Unfortunately, I'm going out of town again. I should be back either Saturday or Sunday. Hopefully others on the list will be able to answer any questions that arise and fix anything that I've broken. :) Jay Treacy -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
