Re: [bug-recutils] Translations for man pages

[John Darrington]

I'd encourage you to consider translating the Texinfo manual before the man 
pages.

The Gnu project considers man pages of secondary importance.

Just my $0.02

     Hi all,
     
     I'm the German translator of recutils. The po files are hosted at 
     translationproject.org (TP). In addition to the UI strings, I like to 
     translate the man pages.
     
     The best way would be to implement po4a [1] for creating the pot template, 
     updating existing po files and handle them via TP. For an example of such 
an 
     implementation have a look at the sources of the console newsreader tin 
[2]. 
     There's a working gettext/po4a stack, which has been added recently to the 
TP. 
     The latest version 2.2 [3] already contains translated man pages, but 
there 
     doesn't seem to be a VCS repo.
