I am very sorry, but I have decided to move the Portuguese translation of
the manual to the list of 'incomplete and out-of-date' translations for the
time being.
The main reason is that there are 18 documents missing, including two very
important sections:
- - 6.3. Using Individual Components
- - B. Installation Howto
Also the pt_BR translation shows as only 31% translated, even though a lot
more files have been translated. The reason for this is that there are a
lot of files that are tagged 'untranslated':
<!-- original version: 11648 untranslated -->
even though they are already in Portuguese.
Finally you do not seem to keep the translation up to date with changes in
the original English docs. At least, for a lot of translated files the
'original version' mentioned in the translation is a lot older than the
current version of the corresponding English file.
It could be that you are just not using the system for keeping translations
up to date that is described in ./doc/manual/translations.txt, but at least
the missing sections IMHO are not acceptable.
I suggest that you read again ./doc/manual/translations.txt.
The tools like doc-check and rev-update can really help you to see the any
changes in the English documents and keep the translation up-to-date.
Please contact me if you feel the Portuguese translation is again up-to-date
and can be moved back to the main table.
Cheers,
FJP
