Hi all, Thanks for your suggestion! We will find a way which serves best. Hi Dave & Gunnar, Currently we have some Chinese guides. How can we upload/put these files to Apache Trafodion website?
Many thanks!

It will help decision making in some cases.

The source for documents can be in directories that mirror the English ones. Which is a good idea because it will be easier to keep them in synch. Links on the web pages and in documents on the other hand can go transparently across Chinese directories. So to an end-user, it is just as you describe: Click on the Chinese link on the main web page, then travel to a collection of Chinese pages. Similarly for the documents.

I will do more research on them. One question: Why add Chinese directory that corresponds with the English version rather than create a specific section/place? In the latter situation, Chinese (large number of users) could locate their desired information with fastest and fewest clicks, the user experience & user usability will be improved significantly, consequently it will contribute to the promotion of Apache Trafodion website as well. Thanks!

Most of the documentation and web pages are located under the docs/ directory. I propose that we keep this simple: simply add a [document]_cn directory that corresponds with the English version. For example, docs/sql_reference and docs/sql_reference_cn. The documents are written in asciidoctor so I think we'll be OK there. The current PDF tool will not do good so we'll probably need to change to asciidoctor-fopub. See http://programfan.github.io/contents/2015/04/20/convert-chinese-asciidoc-to-pdf/ The website uses markdown. From what I can see, this should work. There's even a guide: http://markdown.tw/ Here, I propose that the differnet web pages are complimented with a _cn counterpart. See src/site/markdown/. We may have to do some css work, which I view as a good thing since the current css definitions are really hacks. I hope this helps, Gunnar On Tue, Jul 12, 2016 at 9:10 PM, Liu, Yu (Yu) <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Dava, > Thanks for your details! > We plan to upload Chinese reference manuals/website > pages/guides/instructions/blogs/articles/… periodically. > We will follow the instructions on the website to register. > > Hi all, > One more question: > China has been growing dramatically and enjoy tremendous potential, in > order to benefit more people and grow more audience, and given that a > wealth of Chinese documentation will be coming, thus could Apache > Trafodion create a specific section/tab for Chinese files? > > Liu Yu > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Dave Birdsall [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2016 12:18 AM > To: [email protected] > Cc: Jin, Jian (Seth) <[email protected]>; Yang, Yang (Felix) < > [email protected]> > Subject: RE: Chinese Contributor Access > > Hi Liu Yu, > > > > What sort of documentation do you wish to contribute?
