> Hi Manual folks (and those who want to join us),

> we have reached a major milestone today:
> TRANSLATIONS ARE DONE :D
> 59 of 59 chapters translated! :)
>
> The only thing that is left to do for this step is to remove that task
> from the Community ToDo list on the Inkscape website ;-)
> (this one: https://inkscape.org/contribute/to-do-list/).
> I'm going to do that tomorrow.
>
> I'm so happy that we're now through with this, and now have a
> preliminary version available for people to look at. I also would like
> to thank Sylvain Chiron and Hinerangi Courtenay, who worked on the
> translations of the first section, for their help with this huge task.

> What else happened this week?
> =============================
>
> - brynn's news item about the manual effort has been polished a bit
> further, reviewed by its author, and was published. You can read it all
> here now:
> https://inkscape.org/en/news/2017/06/06/new-inkscape-beginners-manual/
> (it has also been translated to four other languages by our website
> translators' team).
>
> - JP, a new team member joined us as a test user on gitlab. JP wants to
> help by giving us feedback on how the book chapters work for new
> Inkscape users.
>
> - Jabier played a bit with setting up cover images on flossmanuals.
>
> - Brynn started proofreading, and has looked over the first three
> chapters in the second section already :)
>
> What's next?
> ============
>
> The next tasks concern images and proofreading, and can be done in
> parallel.
>
> Images:
> -------
>
> - pictures that we will keep will need English file names. These are
> (currently) all pictures that do not contain any (French) text.
> - pictures that need to be replaced or edited need to be re-made.
> This concerns all pictures with French text in them. For some, we
> may get away with just cutting off the French text, and putting its
> translation next to the image in the book. Others need to be shot again.
>
> If you can help with any of the image related tasks, please find more
> info at https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape-docs/manuals/issues/16 and
> comment there, so we can organize who does what.
>
> Proofreading:
> -------------
>
> - as you all know, the translator of most of the chapters (me) is not
> a native English speaker. Also, while I have fixed and updated a lot
> while translating already, there remain parts in the text that could be
> rephrased and polished a bit. We need your help with proofreading now.
>
> If you are a native English speaker, please comment at one of the
> section-related issues at gitlab:
> https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape-docs/manuals/issues
>
> Current status for taking a peek
> ================================
>
> The latest alpha version of our work is available for reading at
> http://write.flossmanuals.net/start-with-inkscape/_draft/_v/
> 2.6/introduction/
>
> If you want to join the team, it's not too late - just send a message to
> the list here, or comment at gitlab, and we can get you set up. Due to
> the nature of the book, all chapters are very short, so work can be
> shared easily.
>
> Kind Regards,
> Maren
