Hello everyone, here in Italy I worked with the ILDP (Italian Linux Documentation Project) that aims to translate documentation about GNU/Linux from TLDP (The Linux Documentation Project) from english to italian. First of all somebody translate the document, then someone else check the translation. I understand that our translation are not W3C "official" work, but this way, we could give a kind of "quality check" on documents. For Pavel: I'll take time to point some problems of the translation. Most of all, the problem is that reading is not fluent; there are some lexical problems. If you prefer, and if Helen thinks this is a good way to go ahead, I can check the translation, maybe coordinated with Pasquale. Hope to be useful.
