It would be good to outline a list of practical steps in order of
priority, and we could aim to have a proposal for that ready for
discussion at the ftf.
As Lou said, the first priority is surely new elements which have no
translations at all. Following that, elements whose definitions have
changed since their translations were created -- how to create that list
is what I think Sebastian and I had discussed, and I think we came to
the conclusion that we'd have to script a system which would look at the
translation dates, check out svn versions of the files from those dates,
and diff the English definitions against the current ones to find out
whether updates are needed.
And of course we have to do the same for attributes, then remarks.
Cheers,
Martin
