Hey Eduin, we've actually been chatting about this a decent bit recently. Help translating the website and docs of GeoServer would be really great.
Mike should sound in soon, but we're hoping to come up with some better docs on how to translate and build up local language communities. The path would probably be something like this: * Translate GeoServer UI (2.0 needs all new translations, help there would be great, though I'm not sure if we have any docs yet on how to do it). * Set up a mailing list (just started up http://groups.google.com/group/geoserver-es which it looks like you've found). * Translate the docs. Note these are now in svn, using Sphinx, no longer in confluence. See http://docs.geoserver.org/trunk/docguide/ We still need to set up a structure for translations. * Translate other parts of website. Hopefully most everything useful should be in the docs. We still need to make a page on 'how to translate the docs', which should include things like which ones to focus on first, etc. And how to make screenshots in the right language. There's a lot to translate, so we should help guide people on the right way. So some more 'meta' tasks remain to get in to a good place to translate, but it'd be great if you could help out with those - figure out and document how to translate 2.0 UI, the sphinx docs, etc. We can probably set up the i18n plugin for confluence, but I don't think that many pages would need it. best regards, Chris Eduin Carrillo wrote: > Hi List. > > I recently launched a proposal to the Spanish chapter to translate the > website & docs of Geoserver into Spanish.
