Vicky, others,
I'd be keen to capture the depth of your experience setting up
OSGeoLive's translation pipeline with Transifex and forward onto
TheGoodDocsProject [email protected]. . (I'm happy to forward
on your advice.)

My company’s strategy is to set up repos so everything is in the English
language sub-directory and other languages can be added alongside it later.
Instead of /src to hold the source files we start with /src/en. Even if
translation is not expected.
It’s not the only way, but it’s one way to leave space for future
expansion to other languages.

I think we should set up different repos for different languages. This
will make it easy for translators and for users to find relevant info.
Apart from this, I think we should use well-defined terms in our
templates so that it's easier for non-native English speakers and for
translations to be written.
Thoughts?

Sorry for the late reply, I was wondering if we would want to
make our templates available in multiple languages. One challenge
I faced in the later stages of The Documentation Compendium
<https://github.com/kylelobo/The-Documentation-Compendium> was
that I did not consider making the templates available in
multiple languages.
Due to this, I had to restructure the entire repo to make it easy
for people to navigate through the translated templates.
Yes Kyle, I expect that if the templates are successful, people
will want to create translations of them. It would be good to hear
your advice on setting up to be translation friendly.
