Hi Anne and thanks for your proposition.

I've been recently updating a lot the French translation (French being my
mother tongue too) since I came to the same conclusion than you. Most of
my work have been done after the 0.9.6 release and will be a part of the
0.9.7 release. Which version of Hydrogen are you using ? And on which
system and version (such as "Linux Debian 8", "Windows 10", "Mac OS X
10.4", ...) ?

If you're using an up to date version (meaning latest GIT) and you find
some strings which need to be translated/corrected, please tell me. So
far, the not-yet-translated string are the one I'm not sure about (mainly
because I'm not using the Hyrogen function the belong to).

Regarding the manual, i can confirm here (Debian stable package 0.9.6.1)
that when opening the "menu -> infos -> user manual " I've got an empty
windows while we use to have a list of available manuals and tutorials
(please see screenshots attached).

I'm (over)due to update the manual but I didn't started yet. The plan is 
roughly :
1) checking the English manual to ensure that everything is still accurate
(it's been a while since the english manual has been updated) and doing
corrections when relevant
2) adding the new feature which are not yet in the EN manual
3) calling for translators

I guess I didn't started yet because of the lack of personal motivation
unfortunately. I reckon that teaming up^on that purpose would give me
a bit of more motivation :) If you would like to team up, please tell me
and I'm sure we can progress towards a really good up-to-date Hydrogen
manual !

Hope these few lines will answer your questions.

à bientôt :)
Olivier
