Is it usefull to still work with gramps.pot?

We could have many people translating the wiki manual, and then create different manuals from that. The alternative of translating gramps.pot is in theory better, but means we depend very much on one person doing the translation.

Like current data on wiki, we could use a XSLT script for retrieving data for localized version (de, fr, hu, nb, nl, ru, sk) with our docbooks, but we need to follow the english template and find a new way for tracking changes.

Jerome, you can track changes to english text in wiki with the history. Just select present text, and the last version you translated. You will obtain a list of all changes.
Is that good enough you think? bmcage 04:17, 31 August 2007 (EDT)

What is about previous internal links {xref} ?

We have internal links on current docbook/manual using xref. How to transcribe this on wiki for next manual generation ?

I have the impression xref is only for figure reference. Eg: here we need link to the events-fig figure: here.
If we create a new template {{man xref|pos|xref}} then this can be used to link to the image page, while xref can be what we need to use in the extraction script?
To make it complete, inclusion of figures should also happen with a template: so we change [[Image:events.png|right|thumb|150px|Fig. 2.x Events view]] into {{man includeimg|Image:events.png|right|thumb|150px|Fig. 2.x Events view|xref}}
Like that we know how to extract the data of the image into docbook.
