Idea: each FAQ as its own xml file

I just looked at our translations of the Fink FAQ, and it looks like some languages have fallen behind. In trying to sort it all out, I became frustrated with the current source (.xml) file layout: each FAQ entry is really a self-contained item that may be changed (or added or removed), but we only have a single source file for the whole FAQ. Would it be better to have each as a separate file (which the build system joins together)? That way when committing a change, it is clear which FAQ item was updated and one could note that "this corresponds to english rev 1.38" to make it easy to keep things in sync. This cannot be done now, because a single new revision could involve many changed FAQs. It might be easy for some to be translated quickly, but not others, but keeping track of corresponding revision numbers requires knowing that they are all done. dan -- Daniel Macks [email protected] http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by Shop4tech.com-Lowest price on Blank Media 100pk Sonic DVD-R 4x for only $29 -100pk Sonic DVD+R for only $33 Save 50% off Retail on Ink & Toner - Free Shipping and Free Gift. http://www.shop4tech.com/z/Inkjet_Cartridges/9_108_r285
