<p>Hi there DJ, <br>
</p>
<p>About Editing / Translating:<br>
</p>
<p>The recommended workflow for translation is to work online and to
clone the original language manual by 'importing' the original
language book and therefore making a copy. <br>
</p>
<p>To import/clone a book visit your Dashboard and click on the My
Books tab. Click on the Import Book button.<br>
A pop-up box will appear with import options:<br>
Select Booktype and put the URL of te original book e.g.
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://write.flossmanuals.net/csound/">http://write.flossmanuals.net/csound/</a><br>
Make sure to give it a new title. <br>
</p>
<p>An alternative for working offline would be to use Sigil epub
editor to download and change the text. The upload your new epub
to archive.org and import into FM in a similar way to above. But
there are plenty of things that might have to be fixed up manually
as this is a bit of a hack. <br>
</p>
<p>About language pages:<br>
</p>
<p>Creating a page for <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://br.flossmanuals.net">br.flossmanuals.net</a> or <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://pt.flossmanuals.net">pt.flossmanuals.net</a>
would be a bigger job than just having them listed on the
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://flossmanuals.net">http://flossmanuals.net</a> page. <br>
</p>
<p>There is only really one active language site now and that is
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://fr.flossmanuals.net">http://fr.flossmanuals.net</a></p>
<p>There is definitely a place for smaller language sites for
example there are quite a few manuals in castellano. We need a
more lightweight process to set this up both technically (for
example, not maintaining databases etc), and in terms of process,
(in other words, who would maintain these pages and what would
their responsibilities be). <br>
</p>
<p>Definitely open to suggestions!<br>
</p>
<p>For info: There was an active one at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://fi.flossmanuals.net">http://fi.flossmanuals.net</a>
and we are working on recreating that with Tomi, there are also
pages at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://fa.flossmanuals.net">http://fa.flossmanuals.net</a> and <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://nl.flossmanuals.net">http://nl.flossmanuals.net</a>
but they don't have teams maintaining them so should be archived
at some point. <br>
</p>
<p>nice one<br>
Mick<br>

</span> About adding a translation yes it's easy, <br>

<p>Under the hood, it's just a matter of writing a new

sketching or drawing using a computer. Unlike other
paint programs, Alchemy is not necessarily about
creating finished artwork, instead it focuses on using
experimental interaction to come up with new ideas
completely. 'Experimental interaction' in this case
means things like using your voice to control how lines
are drawn on screen, generating random shapes, or
drawing with symmetry to create a quick and dirty face
or body.",<br>
