Hi Meftah,

I'm more than happy to help with the documentation and anything else related to FreeSWITCH.

As you mention the documentation and translation, there are some things that I would really like to improve in the documentation.

I propose that we start a new documentation from the ground up, we really need a better wiki engine that supports inline translation and a better search engine. I'm open to do all the hard work like porting the entire documentation to it.

We could put the new wiki on a sub-domain like: newdocs.freeswitch.org and I do all the work there, without affecting others.

That way we could have inline documentation like this:

<text:en>status - show status information</text>
<text:es>status - mostrar informacion de estado</text>

It's up to others to decide if this is really worth or not.

I'm open to help and to give my time to improve things like documentation, etc .

Diego

The other way we could do is set up a fr.freeswitch.org with mediawiki on it and you start to translate from the English wiki.

But I think inline translation would be better for this.

Just my two cents.

Take a look at this for instance, for an example of inline translation: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/

Check the: "Translations of this page" -- all in the same page, I'd love to have something like that for FreeSWITCH.

Along with a good search engine on the wiki (not Google).

There are some plugins for mediawiki to support multilanguage, either inline or on a separate page. However, both have Pros and Cons. e.g.

multi-language support this with a separate page

some_page #default to en
some_page/fr Franch
some_page/zh Chinese

Pros: clear, available languages can be listed in "Other languages for this page"
Cons: hard to keep all languages in sync

other plugins can do inline translation:

<@en|hello>
<@fr|Ca Va>
<@zh|ÄãºÃ>

Pros: untranslated items remains in default lang, no sync headache
Cons: It breaks a page into sentences or items, also if we have more than 10 languages the source code maybe really a mess.
