Yes, Joshua's been doing this for other files.

Oy, I hope this doesn't become "my job". If nobody else gets around to it, I will do it eventually, but it is really a little bit of a pain. Would you be willing to do it if we had an "Adding a new translation" instruction document? Perhaps Yoshiki (who is more of a cvs expert than me) and I could collaberate on that.

Oops, I didn't mean it that way... Sure, I'll do it for newly translated pages following the way it's been done until now.

One thing: make sure that you always use HTML entities such as é
and do not use ISO-8859-1 characters instead. There has been some
discussion on this list about a way to allow us to use ISO-8859-1
characters directly, which would certainly make our life easier,
but AFAIK no conclusion has been reached yet and we must still use
entities exclusively.

Could you remind me of the issue? I don't think there is any problem with adding the META tags to the HTML, as long as we also send proper HTTP headers.

ISTR that some posters on this list were non adamant about adding charset
headers to the HTML, although I don't remember the details. If we can do
that it'll certainly make our lives much easier. I just don't remember
reading a clear consensus that we can drop using entities and use ISO-8859-1.
If there is then I'm all for it.
