I think it is not good that all translated document is put in one package, because it become big size and, languages except english, which may be official, and user's native language are useless for most people. However, I don't think that it is easy for document author to maintain all translated documents. Since most people can maintain only native language in addition to english, I think it is better that document author maintain original document package and each translators maintain each translated document packages (of cource, some translations can be maintained by original document author.) In this case, we should have some policy about versioning of document pacakge, so that translated document should have <same version> or <original version>-<translation version>. Anyway, if document is maintained by CVS and translator can commit translated document, then document author build multiple package, separated by each languages. Regards, Fumitoshi UKAI
