ciao from capretta (A. Gagliani), I'm working around documentation for Postnuke.it first, then for = eNvolution.it since over two years.=20 I speak italian, of course, good german and good english (I hope). Some proposal s on document management for eNvolution: I think we need a document manager for every supported language: in the = beginning surely for english, german, french and italian language. The = tasks are to coordinate and manage translations and contributions in his = language. I will do it, as I'm just doing it, for Italy. Over these persons there has to be one or more general coordinators of = documentation, who has to look for the work to do, coordinate and manage = it and contact the single language managers. These could best be the = same aboved mentioned language coordinators, who works in team. We have on out italian site lots of documentation that could be useful = also in other languages, and also on german site they have their own = documentation that others could use, and so on...... It's not easy to find translators who help for a longer time (in my = experience...), but often they are helpful for single projects. In other = cases, WIKI is more productive, because even users that aren't staff = writers or translators can help in their free 10 minutes in a = translation with no kind of responsability of work due. WIKI is also a = good tool for collaborative production of documentation, that was = produced until now by the hard work of lonesome writers.... Another proposal on documentation: on italian site we putted a section = called Contributions, where we collect little guides and manuals sent by = normal users on their own experiences with evrything belongs to CMS = (servers, modules, tips, and so on) and it's going well. I think I can manage with document management also for international net = in a collaborative and multilingual team.=20 I'm also intersted in e-learning and e-commerce integration in = eNvolution, but this will be the next step.... ciao, capretta |
