Hi :) Machine translations are not perfect and often give quite humorous results. They do seem a good start to doing a translation as it's 'just' proof-reading after that. It's a task that humans are much better at even if they only have a very basic grasp of one of the languages involved.
Good luck and regards from Tom :) ----- Original Message ---- > From: David Nelson <comme...@traduction.biz> > To: documentation@global.libreoffice.org > Sent: Mon, 13 June, 2011 10:01:39 > Subject: Re: [libreoffice-documentation] Collecting small things in the Wiki > > Hi David, > > On Mon, Jun 13, 2011 at 16:52, David Paenson <davepo...@googlemail.com> wrote: > > Hi Jean, > > > > OK, will get my hands on it.
