Re: Install manual, Finnish translation STARTED

[Tapio Lehtonen <tale@iki.fi>]

I originally created a separate directory for the 
Finnish translation, but messages in the mailing lists
indicated the tranlations should be in the same
directory as the install.sgml file with names 
install.<lang>.sgml. This is so that the *.ent files
can be found with the same links. 

The issue now seems to be how are the *.html, *.text
and *.pdf files going to be produced on the server that
runs debiandoc, and who is going to write the makefile there
and in which way. Is there any agreement about this
on the horizon? I can make the install.fi.sgml file any 
way that is needed, but please decide the correct format
before I have translated it all. I am now 10% done.
