We will soon have a consistent set of documentation that can be translated into languages other than English. These documents cover "everything Jabber" and include end user help files, server admin howtos, developer guides, and protocol documents. They are not quite ready yet, but it would be great to have translation teams in place who can work on them when they are finished (about 2 weeks from now for most of the docs, with the final docs finished about 4 weeks from now, as well as ongoing maintenance). We already have a team ready to translate them into Spanish, and in the past I have talked with people who have translated Jabber docs into French, German, Russian, Italian, and Chinese. However, now I am asking for help with translating the entire set of documents into as many languages as possible (or a subset of docs if we can't find a full team of translators for some languages). We have never done this before but I think it would really help developers, server admins, and users all over the world. Of coruse, because we have never done this I'm sure that there are things we will learn and processes that we can improve, but I think it's time to try.
If you are interested in translating docs or leading a translation team for a specific language, please contact me directly (off-list) by sending an email or Jabber message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks for your help!
