Bonjour
I am not a translator but I think that working from XLIFF documents
would make the translation a bit easier.
XLIFF makes it possible to follow the translation process, at least
partially.
For example, if the translation tools implement the "Change Tracking
Extension" module defined in the latest

Thank you, Joaquin, for this wonderfully systematic bit of work. I wish I had
had this three or four years ago.
There has been a bit of a discussion here about whether ConTeXt manuals should
start from the assumption that the reader already is familiar with LaTeX or
not. If I may cast a vote

Hi Joaquín,
Here is a small suggestion, which would have a few different uses. The
following link, which I copied from the index, should take you to the
definition of \vbox:
I don't really know anything about git, so I can't give my opinion about
what is or isn't convenient to do. Certainly to report bugs in my text I
don't think it takes anything more than an e-mail to send them to me.
Having a repository can be useful to keep a version that is always up to

Really? I wouldn't see it this way. I wondered a bit about the
number of primitives shown in the document of Joaquín, but that they

This is a great resource which I am at the moment enjoying to read but I
can't help wondering if there is a text aimed at those who already know
