Great -- don't hesitate to use my repository, I can give you write
access if that's

I will try to populate with docs when I find time for this.

Hi all,
translation comes after the docs have been written.
The main barrier is not dependancies for translation tools,

Hence the idea of using a plain text light markup language.
Maybe we could run an informal poll about this in the Sugar
