Hello.
I have now translated the tutorial in catalogue Chapter and wonder
how to publish it among your other documentation? This first work is
just temporally. I will proofread it before I upload it to php.net.
I just want to do this now, just to see how it all works.
Thanks for your help and advice!
I assume you checked out the Norwegian documentation from SVN, and are
editing the XML files within? If so, you should probably do the
following:
1. Write [email protected] about this progress. Sure this mailing
list appears dead but you never know, a lurker or two may suddenly
join the effort
2. Post your initial work somewhere so people may review it
3. Apply for a SVN account, as it appears your work will be worthy of
this
4. Wait for it to be approved
5. Start committing
It may take awhile for the translation to appear at www.php.net but it
will end up at doc.php.net in the meantime. Within the last year or
two we've taken down many old/outdated translations from www.php.net
in an effort to both embrace reality and keep the information for
users read current. It's still not perfect but it's a start. The
Norwegian translation appears empty (for the most part) but there is
not a defined rule for when a translation appears online. For me, the
number of critically outdated files is most important. So, let's say
10 files are translated but all in sync with EN, then that seems fine
to me. But, if 10 files are in sync while 100 are critically old,
then it should be offline.
