Let's start with French, since you and Lou can do some of the translations.

As I understand it, then, we need to generate a list of:

  - elementSpecs with no desc in French (already on the ticket, first 
priority)

  - specs whose gloss or desc is out of date (in other words, where the 
text of the gloss or desc has changed since the translation was done)

  - elements and attributes lacking an example in French (does this mean 
only in the *Spec, or in the Guidelines as a whole?)

Am I missing anything?

Cheers,
Martin
