it is an older idea and now it's the perfect moment:
I haven't checked if you used "record changes", but please use it when
you make changes, because it will be easier for translators to update
their translations.
I think that a better alternative is for translators to keep a copy of
the original file they used. Then use the "compare document" feature to
see what has changed.
I don't mean to give more work to translators. But over-all I think
it'll be easier for everyone. When a chapter gets updated, it will
generally include changes from many many people. A lot of deletions,
then insertions, then re-deletions. This makes the document very
unwildly, slow to load, and harder to manage for both the maintainer of
the original copy and the translator.
Using "compare document" you can get a "clean" set of changes.
Cheers,
Daniel.
