(English version)
Je suis très heureux de constater un tourbillon d'activités de traductions récemment autour des projets OSGeo4W et MapServer!
Du côté de MapServer, Lars Lingner a entrepris la traduction en allemand du site Web il y a près d'un an. Du travail a été requis sur la structure du site afin de supporter plus d'une langue, et une première version du site de Mapserver en allemand a été publiée il y a quelques semaines.
Par la suite, Eduin Carillo and Juanma M. R. ont entrepris la traduction du site en espagnol, et il y a quelques jours Yves Jacolin s'est porté volontaire pour la traduction française. Il est à noter qu'Yves offre déjà un bon nombre de documents en français via son site Web pour MapServer, GDAL, QGIS, GRASS, etc. Les traductions espagnole et française du site mapserver.org ne sont pas encore disponibles, mais on peut s'attendre à ce qu'elles le soient dans un avenir rapproché.
Pour ce qui est d'OSGeo4W, le tout a commencé par la traduction en japonais de l'installateur par Jeff McKenna et une équipe de collègues au Japon. Des modifications ont été requises afin de supporter les langues multiples dans l'installateur et le site Web, et maintenant que les bases sont là avec la traduction japonaise, Yves Jacolin vient de se pointer et de contribuer quelques pages en Français.
Merci à tous ces contributeurs pour cet excellent travail. Si vous êtes intéressés à contribuer à la traduction d'un des projets OSGeo alors n'hésitez pas. Voici entre autres quelques lignes directrices pour MapServer et pour OSGeo4W. Dans tous les cas, la liste de discussion des développeurs de votre projet favori est le meilleur endroit pour annoncer vos intentions et obtenir de l'aide afin de démarrer votre traduction.
Mise à jour: Thomas Gratier vient d'annoncer sur la liste mapserver-dev son intention de contribuer à la traduction de la documentation de MapServer en français. Merci Thomas!

OSGeo4W and MapServer Translations
(Version française)
I am very happy to notice a flurry of translation work going on around the OSGeo4W and MapServer projects recently!
On the MapServer front, Lars Lingner started a German translation of the website about a year ago, which led to some work on the website structure to support multiple languages, and a first release of the German translation on the mapserver.org website a few weeks ago.
Since then, Eduin Carillo and Juanma M. R. have started with the Spanish translation, and a few days ago, Yves Jacolin volunteered to work on the French translation. I should add that Yves already offers a good number of French translations through his website for MapServer, GDAL, QGIS, GRASS, etc. The Spanish and French versions of the MapServer website are not published yet, but we can expect them to go live in the near future.
On the OSGeo4W front, the translation effort started with a Japanese translation of the installer by Jeff McKenna and a team of partners in Japan. This required a good amount of ground work to allow support for multiple languages in the installer and the website, and now that the bases are there with the Japanese translation, Yves Jacolin just showed up again to drop some French bits.
Thanks to all the translation contributors for their hard work. If you are interested in contributing to those translation efforts please do not hesitate to join the fun, here are some guidelines for MapServer and for OSGeo4W. In all cases, the developers list of your favorite project is the best place to share your intentions and/or ask for help getting started.
Update: Thomas Gratier just announced on mapserver-dev his plan to contribute to the French translation of MapServer docs. Merci Thomas!
