Hello Anant, hello gentoo-docs,

I started translating the first document and subscribed to the mailing list
gentoo-doc, as suggested. The second document, however, doesn't seem to
exist. Will it be available later?

Two more questions (sorry for bugging):

1) Is there a deadline until the translations for GMN have to be delivered?
2) Are there special tools for translating? I downloaded the GMN as
html-file and use app-text/omegat for translation right now. This would be
stupid if it is needed as (say) openoffice-document or if a web-based
collaboration platform (like Launchpad) existed.

Best regards,

Dirk Salewski

for what I know it's necessary to download the xml file and translate
it , personally I use gedit to translate gentoo-docs.

It's http://www.gentoo.org/news/en/gmn/index.xml . To get the XML
source, just append "?passthru=1" to the URL.

You want to get the XML file, not the generated HTML.

Cheers,

You might want to use sources.gentoo.org :
http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo/xml/htdocs/news/en/gmn/
or even anoncvs.gentoo.org to get the files

Good luck with your translation

we have an existing team that used to do german translations of the GWN and
already started working on the GMN. CCing the list, we could use some
additional help, hope you'll join us.
