Rajko its worse than that. SuSE documentation sources are not in a revision control repo despite the fact that such a repo was setup. As such there is a barrier to entry for open collaboration and contribution on documentation sources. Once SuSE documentataion process embraces the open source workflow and provides the infrustructure to support it, then the collective eye and brain of the community can assist the doc team who at this point are just developing in a hole. To fix the problems you mention in a manner that is sustainable, we need to address the above first. Then community and doc-team can move forward together and discuss how this is going to work and what we can do to address problems, make life easier. Translators need input also and implimentation of the pot/po file format generated from Docbook XML and places in a batch environment using diff etc can help to reduce the workload. Hope this helps, -- Ask me about the Monkey.
