Added debian-doc as this should be of interest to them. Javier Fdz-Sanguino Pen~a wrote: > Is there any mechanism to translate the documentation that does not > sit in the [webwml] CVS tree.

As to the question you raise, there is no general way. A good example would be 2.0/install.html which has been added to the web site by hand. All translations that I know of (that are in the correct format) have also been added. All Debian documentation should be available for translation. Currently you must track down the maintainer of each item you wish to translate to coordinate access to the source and manage naming of files. I mention naming of files because currently all the html outside of the web site has the .html extension. This means files have to be renamed if there are multiple files available. Jay Treacy
