Thanks a lot for this offer! However, the NR has currently 1025
pages; if you ignore the generated stuff you probably are still at
800+ pages – translating this from scratch is indeed a very large
endeavor. If you want to fix some chapters, please go ahead! Just
tell us in advance what you are going to work on so that we could
properly share the load and avoid doing stuff twice.
How to handle translation work is covered in great detail in the
Contributors' Guide. I think that the instructions are up to date –
Jean-Charles, can you confirm this?
