Re: [Firebird-docs] Can contribute
I thought the VPN was ancient history? Am I wrong? I remember writing the docs for how to use it, and then it got changed so that we simply provide an ssh public key (but not dsa!) and that gives us access to sftp our documents directly to the web site. I need to write a new set of "how to upload" manuals! Correct me please, if I'm wrong - it wouldn't be the first time! Cheers, Norm. -- Sent from my Android device with K-9 Mail.

The site http://firebirdsql.ro/ does not work for me. In most cases it is closed. And when it works, 90% is in English. I think to start with the Romanian translation and then creating a firebird forum in romania to promote firebird in Romania. I've read the https://www.firebirdsql.org/en/reference-manuals/#docwriters instructions. I have already installed WinCvs and XMLmind DocBook Editor. For now I waiting a vpn account and other stuff for start. You don't need a VPN account to write documentation. That is only necessary for uploading documentation to the Firebird website, and to be honest I don't think each and every documentation contributor needs that.

Hello Dumitru, > I can try to contribute to FireBird with translation from Russian/English to > Romanian. > If you interesting, please send me a reply. Yes, that would be much appreciated! Do you already have an idea which manual you want to translate first? I guess you know the Romanian Firebird community and can decide what's most wanted/needed. Also, are you familiar with our setup of the manual module (recently moved to https://github.com/FirebirdSQL/firebird-documentation) and working with DocBook sources? The latter shouldn't be difficult BTW, even if you are new to it. Hope to hear from you soon! Please keep following this list, as this is where we discuss doc matters and help each other - even if it's VERY quiet sometimes ;-) Cheers, Paul Vinkenoog -- Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ___ Firebird-docs mailing list Firebird-docs@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/firebird-docs
