I am not too sure to understand either just how the doc workflow works.<br>
<br>
Can we translate the doc? can we help write it? can this job be on a<br>
wiki? (so we can work on it step by step, from time to time, alone or in<br>
a group of people). How can we improve the doc workflow, in fact.<br>

Anyone can translate the docs. Simply pull them out of their location and edit away. Usually what I see people do on the wiki, which makes sense, is to copy the original, then stepwise work through the html file paragraph by paragraph, leaving the tags other structure in place as you go.<br>
<br>
The structure of the docs directories and files is pretty straightforward, as is the XML file that forms the index. I have sent Christoph anything I make, since he has commit rights and I don't.</blockquote><div><br>
</div><div>Do we need commit rights to edit an online doc file? Or to submit a translation? My understanding of this is it’s tied to the application only by a URL. Thus, in no way does that affect the code. It’s a simple link to a website.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Can we turn this into a wikipedia-like way to go? If for some reason someone makes an error and mixes things or deletes some content, we have ways to return to the previous stage. I see a lot of disadvantages at pulling out a file, edit away and then pushing it back, while there are ways to work in a collaborative (and sync) mode.</div>
