Hey, excellent - great to see you're reaching the end of your work :)
Hope it worked out well.

No prob - I'll give you an account.  You're probably right, it wouldn't
make too much sense to spread this out over yet another different
machine, especially since I already have a bunch of scripts on mine that
automate some of the maintenance.

Don't worry - I'm sure you'll find more people once you've started.  I
started by myself, and it took a little time but now there are a few
other people helping.  Maybe advertise your efforts in french
newsgroups, mailing-lists etc?

Well, the website already has quite a few pages translated.  All I'd
need for it to actually place it "live" (ie put a link to it on the main
website) would be that you (or somebody else) goes through the files and
fixes any broken links, updates the pages to be in synch with the
current english version etc.

Once that's done, just pick a section you like and go ahead.  I think
the most important -- though unfortunately also the most difficult to
translate -- section is htdocs/Documentation, but anything will be
appreciated and help the project.
