Yes, certainly. You can add new team on Tx.net [1] and you can also use our repo on Sf.net [2] (if the name "man-pages-ru" doesn't embarrass you :).
You can also add page in your language with instructions to Sf.net (ask me about it in private letter).
One can find some details about project [2] in file [3].
There are 3 coordinators (Russian):
kruvalig (Valerij Kruchko)- project [1] on Tx.net (from Russian Fedora L10N Team);
yuray (Yuri Kozlov) - project on Sf.net [2] (He is from Debian community);
and I (mama-sun, Inna Kabanova) - I'm responsible for communications with other projects in Russia, with Russian Fedora L10N Team and others. (But if you have some technical questions you had better ask yuray :).
And what about project [4]: it is project of Vladimir Stupin (morbo). He created it to translate into Russian man-pages he want. For the moment projects [1] and [4] are not coherent.

Yes, I think so too. But today we are at the outset and there are a lot of unsettled problems ahead.

We try to contact with Russian teams from other distribs to invite them into the project.

According to what Yuri's said me about your questions in our project we have only one upstream project (kernel.org) and we didn't solve the problem of adding a new one. But it's interesting for us. So I ask you, Dimitris, to communicate with Yuri (yuray AT komyakino DOT ru) and kruvalig to take up this problems.

Introducing myself to Fedora translators
by Tezcatl Franco
Hello Fedora people!
My name is Jesús Franco, alias Tezcatl(or tzk) in many pages out there,
because Tezcatlipoca is poor known as brother of Quetzalcoatl and as
dark-mage, but that's not fair. He represents the wisdom of the
subconscious mind and the older values of humanity. Maybe you has
guessed now, i'm from Mexico.
I'm GNU/Linux user from 4 years ago and i've done translations for
projects like riseup.net and others related to autonomy and
security. My work in free software movement has been in workshops of
digital inclusion with children and elder people, from fundamentals of
ofimatics to introduction to programming for kids with Scratch of MIT.
Installfests has not been very appealing to me, but with a friend i've
worked in the migration of 2 after-school centres in towns of high
levels of margination in Mexico City and Chimalhuacán, State of
Mexico. Actually that was done with Ubuntu the last year, but i've
discovered Fedora now and i like it very much because his commitment
to free software it's more definite. However in the FliSol of this
year i'll promote Fedora with a presentation and giving personal
guidance and support for the guys and girls who wants give a try to
Fedora in the installation area.
My goals joining to Fedora translators (Spanish specifically) are
1. supporting the translation of documentation more necessary to let
other instructors like me using Fedora in live or online workshops
of "digital inclusion" as an approach to the empowering of
marginalized communities reducing the "digital breach". 2. Making
proposal of correction of sexism in the language of traductions, much
more problematic in spanish than in english, i want to believe Fedora
has a wise community very proud to be the First to include the better
Features in his contributions to the whole open source ecosystem.
Finally, i'm sorry for my poor writing abilities in english, i'm not
used to translate from spanish to english. More likely from english to
my language. I'm pretty sure joining this community will be plenty of
opportunities to learn, share and joy. :)
Best regards,
Jesús Franco

default link for untranslated books
by Domingo Becker
I was looking for the F13 install guide at the new docs site [1] but,
as there is no Spanish version yet, the site seems to indicate that
there is no install-guide at all [2].
Is it possible to have at the left the links to the English version
for the untranslated books?
So the Fedora documetation list is complete. New users will see
untranslated guides in English and would probably want to join us in
the translation efforts.
What do other language coordinators think?

New translation process for wiki; feedback requested
by Ian Weller
Hi everybody,
For a couple of years since we switched to MediaWiki, I've been working
with Infrastructure to get a new localization framework set up on the
wiki. After trying multiple methods, with none of them working very
well, I set up a subpage-based localization system on the wiki today.
All of the templates are fully functional as they stand. There is draft
documentation available at:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FedoraProject:Translating
I'd like translators to look over the documentation and make any
suggestions they have.. I've tried to make the process as simple and
user-friendly as possible.
I hope that this can make translation better for everybody on the wiki.
Thanks for everything you do!
