I uploaded to the Dutch folder what I got so far. Can you see the files?

I can see the files in folder_contents view. I suggest that you create a sub-folder for those files, instead of keeping them in the main folder. You might also want a second subfolder for people to put reviews of your translations, but that's up to you.

If you have trouble creating a subfolder, let us know.

Now I wonder. This is very rought first draft of those files. When I polish up the files during the second pass, how do I replace those files? Do I delete them and then create documents with the same names? Or is there a better way? The last file is only halfway translated. I want to store it there though, as an off site backup. Can I update the file as I get further along with the translation?

If you want to overwrite the existing file (keeping the filename the same), here is how.

When you are in file_view for a document (for example, http://oooauthors.org/nl/0101GS-WatIsOOo.odt/file_view ), click on the Edit tab just above the filename.

On the file_edit_form page, you can change the title and/or the description if you wish, then browse for the revised file on your computer and select it. Finally, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click the Save button.

Then there is the matter of the web site. If I would like to see an entire Dutch section to it, where are the files that need to be translated for achieving that?

If you mean the words on the tabs ("User Guide", "Education", "FAQs" etc) and other things at the top of the page... I don't remember how that is done, but I know you can change the words, and the number of tabs. Marko or Daniel and maybe some others should be able to tell you, faster than I can look it up and explain it. I think you will also have to have another level of permission too.

If you mean the files that explain how to use the website, here are the main files related to the English-language section:
http://oooauthors.org/en/authors/userguide2/contribute
http://oooauthors.org/en/authors/userguide2/resources/

The second item is actually a folder containing a lot of "how to use this website" info as well as some other things that may not be relevant.

Note: the German section and I think some of the others use a different process, not the same as the English section uses. It's up to you (and anyone else in the Dutch section) what process you prefer.

You probably will want a different "Review List" (not the English docs) to show up on the Dutch first page. I'm not sure how to change what shows up there. (I think I have instructions here on how to do it, but I've never actually done it.) Marko or Daniel or someone can probably fix that for you.
