[Hg Books] What about a french translation ?

[Romain Pelisse]

Hi everyone,

I'm rather new on this mailing list (that I have been "spying" for while
however :) ) and to mercurial, however I was considering trying to provide a
french version of the hgbook. I'm quite at ease with Latex, and I already
did some translation work for KDE. I do think (and hope) that such a
translation would help Mercurial adoption in french speaking country.

I could obviously 'hg pull' the current book and start my work, but prior to
that i would check if there is nobody how started such a work or if anybody
here would be interested in participating. I also have some doubts on how to
proceed...

Should I simply copy the content of the 'en' directory into a 'fr' and start
translating ? (In this case, i think it'll be more effecient to have a
clone, as we'll be able to easily pull change from the main hgbook and
therefore new what's may have change that we have to translate or fix).
