Done, I have

1) put a link to http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBTECH/Internationalization from FAQ
2) added there a link to http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBIZ/Tips+for+UI+labels+translation
3) put also a warning explaining it's far better to translate sentences than words...

Thanks

Jacques

Jacques,

Thank you for staying on top of this. One small request though... could
you move the large red warning to the Text Translation page?

http://docs.ofbiz.org/x/HSM

It seems to me it would be more appropriate there.

Adrian,

Thanks for your comment. Done as requested (I thought about that, but wanted to push it a bit more - so at the root, a bit too much
indeed ;o)
