FYI.
The SRPM of docbook2X includes an excellent template docbook for man
pages.

Hi, everybody! Could you please help me! I(and I have a team, we

Could you please explain me how to translate man-pages, if possible
step by step (I'm not so smart)! Excuse me, for taking your time!
Thank you.
Michael Kerrisk maintains the core man page set in English. He
publishes the man pages as ordinary tarballs:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/docs/man-pages/
All you need to do is just translate the individual man pages, and
assemble and publish a similar tarball. Then, contact the maintainer
of Fedora's man-pages rpm, and figure out how you want to coordinate
your work -- whether the maintainer's going to pull your tarball and
publish it as a subpackage, or you maintaining a separate rpm
package, by yourself.
My personal suggestion to you is to use Docbook XML to write your
man pages, and use Docbook XSL stylesheets to translate them into
both a troff format, and a nice HTML version, from the same source.
