Old Etch file: http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/ddp/manuals/tags/release-notes/etch/vi/?rev=5839
New Lenny files: http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/ddp/manuals/trunk/release-notes/vi/
As Javier already noticed it was not tried to reuse existing translations. Since
the document format changed from SGML to DocBook/XML some tags (e.g. <package> ==>
<systemitem role=\"package\">) changed which makes it hard to reuse old translations.
It may be possible that you can manually extract similar sentences from the old
source. Your decision ...
I updated the Vietnamese files so that the match the current English files. Please
ensure that you use these updated files (if you have conflicts, just ignore my changes,
commit your stuff and ask me for an update again).
Current statistics:
vi: 18 translated messages, 16 fuzzy translations, 759 untranslated messages.
