Hi Marko, Thank you for the offer! (And thanks again for the Dutch labeller locale.)
As I'm sure that you're aware, the docs are not in such a great shape: 1) We're currently using the Google wiki sw which is weak--poor support for hosting images, very limited wiki markup language, etc. About the only redeeming feature is that Google isn't charging for it. I'd like to move to a Media Wiki or other technology but we need to first find a corporate sponsor. Both David H and I have been trying to accomplish that but it is slow going. 2) (Perhaps more to the point), I wouldn't want you to spend much time translating until the English docs are in good shape. But unfortunately, they need a lot of work. So far, only Timeline docs have been ported over to the Google wiki. But many of them are out of date, refer to version 1, use screen shots from ver 1, etc. A lot of work is needed. rdq123 has been doing a great job on the Timeline docs, but he needs assistance. So I think at this point, my summary is "Thank you VERY much for your offer of help, but let's wait until one or both of the issues above gets better." Regarding translation co-ordinator: I don't know of anyone in that role. Would you like to handle it when we get to that stage? Thanks and regards, Larry ----- Original Message ---- From: Marko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: SIMILE Widgets <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, October 24, 2008 9:31:27 AM Subject: Translations Hello, I noticed that there are several translations missing in the project. I am not a coder, but I can contribute by translating docs into Dutch. Is there a translation coordinator?
