On the basis of a quick review, I would tend to agree with David - although the document looks very solid and the work done is very impressive, the approach and level of detail is probably not appropriate for desktop user help. I would prefer to have this sort of document in the wiki, with more high level usage instructions kept for the language-selector package and a link to that from the ubuntu-docs package. The nuts and bolts of gettext don't need to be explained for the vast majority of our users, they just need to know how to install and change languages. > * The docs team (and other projects in general) don't work directly on > XML.
