Hey, this is pretty huge. I'm not sure about gettext as a means for translation of something like a tutorial, it always seems like a lot of extra machinery to add when there's no need to integrate the artifacts into a software build at the end of the day. And it means that only folks who understand gettext can do translation. Did you use some other i18n service to hide the ugly edges of gettext? Should we look at that as a means of handling translations?

Hey @pramsey perhaps did you think something about registering pot files to transifex service? This would be always possible as indicated here as long as we know that we cannot handle versioning in there.

OK, so I see that gettext is actually the recommended way to do this, and there's tooling to support it, so really just need to get my head wrapped around what we'd need to do to manage it over time. I don't want to screw it up and end up with a dead translation line. BTW (sorry, I should just look but) what about screenshots?

So are you willing to translate also screenshot content like dialog at bullet 4 from paragraph 5.6.1 for example? What else do you mean with screenshots? Their labels below are also translated.

@volaya So what is the story with this one? Last update was a year ago ...

The pull request seems to have a nifty "sphinx way" of doing translations based on locale.

This is different that what we have done in other repositories (see postgis intro ) where we have seperate sphinx projects for each translation.

@jodygarnett @bmmpxf maybe this can act as a starting point to see how translation could be accomplished for future material like the trainings?
