Pootle User Guide progress
Hi,
my draft on http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Talk:Pootle_User_Guide
progresses. It is not completed, but I have integrated all still
relevant parts from http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Pootle_User_Guide.
I now want to move the content from the talk page to the real page,
replacing its current content. Any objections?
The content is already very large for a single page. So I want to follow
Andreas suggestion to divide it in several pages. That can be done by
transferring some content to independent other pages or by creating
subpages. What do you like more?
I do not "own" the text. Feel free to change or add content.
Kind regards
Regina

I am a pootle user, and its a very good guide, I took time to read it
detailed and its very readable and correct in the detail.
this is a guide that will help new translators a lot.
You should clearly split it as subpages based on the content index (e.g.
one chapter == one subpage). That way its kept together as one document and
easier to copy etc.

Well I am not a pootle user, but this guide looks pretty good to me. I
would say time to publish "love". As for your other question -- no idea
about "independent pages" or "subpages".
When it's ready to go, we should link to it from the project website Native
Language page:
http://openoffice.apache.org/native-lang.html
Right now, we only have a link to the official Pootle documentation, which
may not be as helpful.

I've now committed a revised version.
Full diff (of course, feel free to fix language):
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/openoffice/site/trunk/content/translate.mdtext?r1=1498687&r2=1531553&diff_format=h
Note that, among other changes and pending a better investigation of the
possible solutions, I've removed the request for new volunteers to get
their name listed at CWiki.
Regards,
Andrea.

This is not my area of expertise, but once your Pootle guide is done,
we should probably revisit this "orientation page":
http://openoffice.apache.org/translate.html
If there is redundant information we can eliminate it from that page
and put a link to the wiki guide.

I have added wiki links for the headings additionally to the top content
table (upper right corner) to simplify the navigation.
It's a good resource that will help a lot.

I have chosen to use subpages.
You will find a lot of ToDo's and empty sections. But I think the
content is rich enough to be helpful already now. But it would be nice,
if you join your experience and add it there. And it would be good, if
members with better English than me could correct all the errors.
I want to translate in principle to German. (To get a German guide was

http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Template:OrigLang and
http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Template:Lang. But it is not clear to

The pages have localization links in the bottom part, which are
automatically shown in the left column. Currently they are dummies,
copies of what already exists. What should be used at that place
exactly, to get a well structured Wiki?

I have chosen to use subpages.
You will find a lot of ToDo's and empty sections. But I think the
content is rich enough to be helpful already now. But it would be nice,
if you join your experience and add it there. And it would be good, if
members with better English than me could correct all the errors.
