translation scripts on github

I think it'd be a good idea to put the crowdin/cordova translation scripts 
somewhere on github so they are there in case someone else needs to run 
them besides me.  I uploaded them to one of my github repos here: 
https://github.com/ldeluca/cordova-translation  Any suggestions for a good 
place to put them inside of the cordova github repos?  Maybe coho? 

Instructions on how to run the translation scripts are also on our wiki 
page here: http://wiki.apache.org/cordova/CordovaTranslations.

I agree Carlos! I've always felt strongly that a project's documentation
should be under version control with the source code. This strong marriage
ensures that, oh say the wiki server vanishes, we will still know how to
compile the project's source code. The wiki should only be used to document
processes between multiple projects. Unfortunately, I've been in the
minority on this view for years.

Re: translation scripts on github

Posted by Carlos Santana <cs...@gmail.com>.
I also think they should go in cordova-docs repo

And Also I would transfer the Wiki Page Instructions into Repo as README.md
on the root with those scripts.

I think it would be good to have code and doc married :-)

Also long term maintenance is easier for folks to contribute to the
instructions in github via pull request
So if someone update the script and instructions need to be update they can
do it all in one pull request

Re: translation scripts on github

I think the translation scripts can go under cordova-docs as well. Perhaps
`lib/translation/`. If you have an entry-point executable, then place it
under `bin/translation`. That keeps everything organized and following the
same pattern as the generator script.

For the plugin documentation, ideally we'll follow the same pattern as
before: `cordova-plugin-name/doc/LANG/`. Perhaps we can make English the
root (no "en" directory) to make viewing easier for non-translated plugins
(e.g. third-party plugins). *shrugs*

Re: translation scripts on github

Posted by Lisa Seacat DeLuca <ld...@us.ibm.com>.
Thats an idea (re: put inside cordova-docs).  Reason I didn't suggest it 
was the plugin docs are in their own repos now.  But that doesn't mean the 
scripts can't be in cordova-docs.  We could have a new directory for 
translation scripts, not to be confused with "translations are under this 
dir".  Sure, we can add to the agenda.  I'll be on in listen only mode. I 
have a conflict for the 2nd half of the hangout.  We should also talk 
about how we're going to handle pointing to the plugin documentation on 
the call as well.  Right now it redirects to the github repos which is 
going to be try with version switching and translations.

These could live in a branch on cordova-labs repo but it seems to me this
would belong in cordova-docs, no?

(Should we add this to this afternoon's agenda for the hangout?)
