Well, as long as there's no suitable infrastructure in place, we could just as well forget about doing this, due to the overwhelming size. IMHO we should have a separate CVS for internationalization. Also every patch to the english docu should trigger a ToDo item on a web page for a specific language. Whether the notifications get done automatically or manually doesn't matter. What matters is that there is a *lossless* notification of translation requirements for certain languages (in order to make dead sure that the docu does stay in sync). The CVS used for committing changes to the internationalization project should be as public as possible, and as closed as required. Whenever someone commits a translation patch for his specific language, he will remove the corresponding ToDo item on the language's web page. I already talked to certain web development related people (you know whom ;-) but so far I haven't received any input. Thus we should actually code some interface to a web page that enables Alexandre to trigger a ToDo notification on the various language bug pages. Having such notification web pages with delete functionality is no small functionality (and no, BugZilla doesn't qualify, IMHO), so does anyone know of some web based package that enables us to design such a thing with a *minimum* amount of effort ? (most likely a database backend is required, too) Or, better yet (aka: "million $$ question"), would someone code this up for us ? -- Microsoft Licensing 6.0: "Pay us now in advance, so that we can own you later." _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@winehq.com http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
