please commit: release notes for it (original revision 1.2..

Luca Brivio · External Since: Jan 28, 2006 Posts: 21

We're now about to do a massive proofreading and correction, which should be
completed in a few hours. Please commit though in order to check whether they
do properly build and possibly fix them:

http://www.mindolo.net/release-notes.it.sgml

(I've also noticed several small errors in the last original revision, but I
fear I will not have enough time to provide any patch...)

Done. It currently fails to build but I'm already searching ...

It would be nice to get these errors fixed ...

I always think it's a good idea to commit original files and build fixes
separately. That's useful for copyright issues and to demonstrate the problems.
That's why I don't hesitate to commit also not buildable files.

Maybe, but activating it publishs it also to
http://www.debian.org/releases/testing/releasenotes and makes
proofreading easier. Consider also the fact that people not
understanding English would prefer a translation, even if it contains a
lot of typos. Readers can always switch to the English version, the
reverse would not be possible without building it/ as well ...

I also respected the announced proofread.

PS: Frans, how about activating Romanian as well? Current status is:
599 translated messages, 2 fuzzy translations, 25 untranslated messages.

It is nearly completely translated and PO file based, which means the
content is up to date.
Activating it now would also motivate the translator and allows more
tests (build checks and proofreads).

Good work, I've just merged it and now I'm merging fixes from l10n-italian
people.

I too but I really do no wonder about it anymore ...

Problem resolved. The document is now up to date and fully translated,
so it was added.
