Hello,

Russian openSUSE community would like to translate Novell documentation stored 
at http://www.novell.com/documentation/opensuse102. Here is the project site: 
http://svn.team.org.ru:8000/trac

We've already done a KDE Quick Start translation (as test), but experienced 
some problems with building pdf. 

First, I installed susedoc package and other stuff listed in  
http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfcontent/private.php/novdoc/susemakedoc.pdf 
from factory. 
I tried to build documentation using fop: 
http://svn.team.org.ru:8000/trac/browser/test/opensuse-kdequick-alpha1.pdf 
and xep: 
http://svn.team.org.ru:8000/trac/browser/test/opensuse-kdequick-alpha1-xep.pdf

Building using xep went almost smoothly but xep is unacceptable due to license 
issues. Fop couldn't find necessary fonts:

[ERROR] unknown font ZapfDingbats,italic,normal so defaulted font to any
[ERROR] unknown font sansserif,normal,bold so defaulted font to any

Complete log: http://svn.team.org.ru:8000/trac/browser/test/build.log (some 
other annoying errors there).

Finally, I want to ask about legality of such stuff. Doesn't it violate in any 
way licences if we leave all the copyrights and trademarks in our 
translations?

Thanks for any feedback.
