Hi Jason & Philip, Pushing this up again - to explain my interest, we are on the verge to pay for a FR translation of the user doc (2.29). I have two options: - Do that on a word/PDF and share with my customer - Do it on the proper source and contribute it back
The first option is easier, but would look as a missed opportunity. If you have a way to procude the .md on a 2.29 branch that would be super helpful - for us, but also we think for the community. Let me know what you think, Martin On Mon, Oct 29, 2018 at 12:27 PM Philip Anthony Larsen Donnelly < p...@dhis2.org> wrote: > Hi Martin, > > In answer to your questions: > 1) Not yet.
