[users@httpd] Call for translation
Participation in open source project is not only open to folks who can
program in C. If you can read English, and can write in some other
language, your participation is desperately needed.
The complete documentation for the Apache HTTP Server is currently
only available in English. Parts of it are available in other
languages, with German, French, and Japanese being the most complete.
However, some modules are not available in other languages at all,
while many are partially translated, and most are not translated at all.
If you are able to translate into any language, please let us know.
Either respond to this note, or, better yet, join the docs@httpd.apache.org
mailing list (send a note to docs-subscribe@httpd.apache.org) and
join the conversation there. You don't need to know how to program in
C, and you don't even need to know how to use svn, or write HTML or
XML, although these things are helpful, and if you participate for
very long, you're sure to learn.
Participation in Open Source projects looks great on your resume, and
helps make the world a better place, and it can be a lot of fun.
Please consider using your language skills to benefit the Apache HTTP
Server project.

If you have extremely limited time, you can still participate by reviewing the
translations submitted by others. Due to some prior total failures of seeking
review, even the "It Worked!" page in one language was meaningless drivel.
So please subscribe as Rich indicates and raise your hand when a translation is
offered in one of your primary languages which you would be willing to review.

Thanks, Rich.
I've already joined the docs list and I'll look at the links you give me to
get an idea.

Either email with attachment to the docs list, or paste the diff on a
pastebin like http://apache.pastebin.ca/ and email the URL to the docs
list.
Since this is the first one, and there's no existing file to diff
against, probably email with attachment makes the most sense.

I've started with the core.xml file.
I've made the translation for the first part that covers the directive
AcceptFilter.
It's no much but I think is better to commit as soon as I have something
finished.
How is going that? Email with attachment to you? Attachment to the doc list?

Yes, I think mod/ is probably the best place to start, as well as the
easiest, since things are in small sections and that gives a greater
sense of accomplishment. It's probably also the part of the docs that
people spend the most time reading, so it's the most valuable.
Thanks so much for your participation.

Yes, I think mod/ is probably the best place to start, as well as the
easiest, since things are in small sections and that gives a greater

I've added that here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs-project/translations.html
It's not at all detailed, but should be enough to get you started.

It turns out that quite a bit of work has been done already for the
2.0 documentation in Spanish, but I don't yet have any idea how much,
if any, of that, can be copied straight forward to the 2.4
documentation. I would need someone - perhaps yourself - to evaluate
that.
Meanwhile, I have been intending to write a short "how to get started"
section on the Translations page. Perhaps this is a good time to do
that. :)

We absolutely do.
You can see a full list here: http://httpd.apache.org/docs-project/avail_translations.html
of what has been translated and what has not. With Spanish, you can
start anywhere at all. It looks like mod_actions is the only file that
has been translated.
Please let me know if you need any help getting started, and please do
join the docs list if you decide this is something you want to do. We
look forward to you being part of the team.

Hi Rich,
do you need people for spanish translation? I could get some time to do that
and I have some experience with these issues (open source, translations,
etc.).
