Yes I know about your work so far Vincent, many thanks.
With this welcome page and the list of essential docs
I'm hoping to make it easier for you and other translators
to know what might be best to work on ...

Yes, I have wondered about this too ... my suggestion is
to leave the changing content out of the translated home
pages.  For eg the welcome template above has some home
page elements, but not the news and articles sections.

I'm hoping/expecting that most of the essential pages will
not be too dynamic also.

OK, good.  The Marketing team I think have already done
some work on this list, when they have something I will
add it to the page.

Great, thanks Vincent!  Maybe you could ask on
nbdiscuss_fr@ (or users@translatedfiles ?) for help, so you
don't have to translate everything yourself ?

Excellent!  Thanks for your feedback and support Vincent.
