Yes it's the best section for this. Thanks a lot :).

Surely the ideal thing would be to upload screenshots in the text language, but 
this requires to download each CD, run it in VirtualBox or live, make the 
screenshots and go back to Spip. You're right it's quite a lot of work.

Instead I was thinking of replacing the old screenshots using the new *English* 
ones while waiting for each section manager to make the screenshot in his/her 
own language himself/herself. Tell us if you feel this effort is doable or not 
:).

Great and… weird :(. I suspect recent hardware be responsible of this failure. 
We have to always bring old enough laptops to demonstrations! Hardware handling 
is the main source of issues with Linux nowadays. Remember that the official 
DDL is using the old Debian stable, which is 2 and half years old.

Thank Yulia on behalf of the whole team :).

We're impatient to read it!

Unfortunately we don't have the means to buy recent hardware and test it yet. 
Please try to collect hardware issue reports whenever possible. We should 
certainly rewrite it a bit in order to be able to write reports on an USB key 
from the command line without the need to do extra mount commands, useful when 
video is not working at all. You can open a ticket for that.

I think the development version should be tried in these cases to check that 
upgrading the base OS solves the issue.

Suppose you're talking about Wikipedia? I saw the French and Russian articles 
are now referred to by the Italian one, but strangely the Russian one doesn't 
refer to any.

I'm still looking for a way to have it in English too. Couldn't we share the 
translation work between several people who enough understand the 
French/Italian article or any of its automatic translation? If, say, 5-6 people 
have 2-3 paragraphs to translate, it's much less work.

Who would be interested in participating into this collective translation? I 
can already answer: me!

Cheers,
JM.
