[Pgpool-hackers] Presentation and proposal for translations

[Jean-Paul Argudo]

Hi there,


I start by apologize: I used the wrong e-mail, causing my message a
request for approval, by admins.

I suscribed to this list with my "PG community" e-mail
(jean-paul at postgresqlfr.org) and **not** with my professional one.

Just because this is part of a personal thing and not a professional
one, even if those two domains, given the fact I'm a part of a PG
company, are real close, I must admit :)

Glad to help !

Ok. I'll wait then. I just have to find a good HTML editor :)

I'll try. But my 1st work is to translate well in french. Guillaume is
okay to review my work.

On a second step, I'll try to propose documentation enhancements, first
on the english version. For sure those enhancements will require this
list' approval.

HTML is just a pain to edit. Thats the main problem.

It would be really fantastic to have
http://pgpool.projects.postgresql.org/ as a wiki, with extensions to
multiple languages.

I know someone (Damien Clochard) that already did it in our community.
As an example, see http://2009.pgday.eu/ (look for small flags button on
the upper right corner).

Its a dokuwiki, with multiple languages support. It is really easy to
maintain and edit (plain files, editor like any wiki inside, after a login).

I'm sure that if I ask Damien, he may join and help us there.

If he doesnt want, I know how to do it too.

But, okay, this idea goes really far for a initial need of
documentation, I admit it !! :)

Yeah, sure, I can do that too. I let Nozomi write me then ?

> I expect pgpoolAdmin for pgpool-II 3.0 will be released by the end of July.

Wonderfull news :)

Cheers!
