Subject: Re: [docbook-apps] Translation/i18n of DocBook/XML?
Hi, if you do not insist on a pure open source tool chain, the XLIFF editor by Heartsome (www.heartsome.net resp. http://www.heartsome.net/EN/xlfedit.html) might be a solution. XLIFF editor is able to convert a DocBook XML document into XLIFF (another XML vocabulary hosted by OASIS - just like DocBook - which serves for localization purposes) and helps you translating the source files into any language you want. It also features a translation memory to recycle existing translation segments, thus reducing the translation effort considerably. In contrast to other commercial tools such as TRADOS or TRANSIT, it is a Java application and should run as well under Linux. I don't know whether there are any open source tools for translation purposes that serve equally well; at least I don't no any open source tool that features translation memories and fuzzy search. Does anybody else on the list know any of them?
