Re: [Gretl-devel] Almost all translated webpages out of date

Hi,
I've noticed that with the notable exception of the Portuguese variant
(/pt.html) and the external Polish site the translated corresponding pages to
gretl.sf.net are considerably out of date, as judged by the fact that the
latest gretl conference in June 2017 isn't mentioned. (The conference was
announced some months before it happened, so that's more than half a year
delay.)
Personally I'm lazy (at least in some respects) and therefore have never even
started a German translation of that page (nor of the user guide). So I'm in
no position to judge anybody. However, I'm not sure that it's good that
obsolete pages stay online, and I think an update once a year or so can be
expected if somebody commits himself to the translation. Otherwise this might
give a bad impression concerning the multilingual and internationalization
efforts of gretl.
I agree. At some points in the past I've replaced some of the
translated pages with symlinks to the English version, and maybe it's
time to do that again.
Better, obviously, would be to have updates for the translated pages.
