Re: Ada & Zangemann Japanese translation

Hello Masanori,

As I'm currently leading the technical efforts for the Ada Zangemann
automation, let me add some relevant technical details:

There are some ideas to improve the current automation. I've documented
most of these in the issues so you can take it into account
https://git.fsfe.org/FSFE/ada-zangemann/issues

The current text format relies on trailing spaces to signify
continuation and hard breaks. Work is under way to change that.
https://git.fsfe.org/FSFE/ada-zangemann/issues/13 Feel free to
anticipate those changes during the translation if that makes it easier
for you.

Petter worked on .po translation file support for the Norwegian
translation https://git.fsfe.org/FSFE/ada-zangemann/pulls/38 which
enables him to use Weblate
https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/rms-personal-data-safe/ada-zangemann/nb_NO/
This support is close to being merged. It might be an interesting way
to coordinate translations. In the Netherlands we managed using an
etherpad with the translation file, which also works.

Please be considerate about the text length, as the current text frames
in Scribus have a fixed size and might cause text to not show up. In
general it shouldn't be an issue, but you can always check by rendering
the Scribus files (or resulting pdf files).


About the license. CC-BY-4.0 is fine, which is already used for most of
the newer contents of the repository. CC-BY-3.0-DE was used for the
original German work including the illustrations. Most scripts are
under CC0-1.0 in case you'd like to contribute there.

Thanks for the initiative and like Bonnie I'm happy to help where
possible.

Kind regards,
