Re: Czech, Portuguese home pages up!

Hello Bruno,

(I'm cc'ing webteam@ as I think this is of interest to
others translating).

Thanks for checking.  Easiest way to submit updates is
if you have a cvs checkout of the testwww site, and make
a diff against it.  This is described at :

Great news!  Yes, I think netbeans.org has project space,
and I think nb.org is the right place to do it.  Vincent 
and Maxym (who are on this list) run the translatedfiles
project :

   http://translatedfiles.netbeans.org/

which is the "home" of IDE translation work.  I don't
have any experience with that yet.  Vincent, Maxym,
what would you suggest here ?  How are localisations
organised under translatedfiles ?

Actually Vincent and Maxym maybe you can help me - I
would like to make it easier to see 

- what IDE translations are under way
- what has been done
- what needs to be done
- ... 

That way a visitor to the site can immediately see
current status, and maybe more easily get involved.  I
am imagining some kind of status table that shows each
language and status of work in each.  What do you think ?

Well webteam@ is really about website work; the
translatedfiles project has it's own mailing lists for
discussion of translating the IDE, I would suggest your
whole team sign up to the users list, info at

   http://translatedfiles.netbeans.org/servlets/ProjectMailingListList

Post an introductory msg about what you're doing/
planning, in case there are others working on that
already.

Exciting stuff! :-)
