Translation

[GTriderXC]

A few ppl from a Polish translators team would like to translate the Manual. The question is, whether it has a sense?

"name={\acronym{GNOME}}, description={\acronym{GNOME} (which once stood for \acronym{GNU} Network Object Model Environment) is the default desktop environment used in Ubuntu.}"

default desktop environment used in Ubuntu?

"name={desktop environment}, description={A generic term to describe a \acronym{GUI} interface for humans to interact with computers. There are many desktop environments such as \acronym{GNOME}, \acronym{KDE}, \acronym{XFCE} and \acronym{LXDE}, to name a few.}"

LXDE? Anybody heard about Unity?

Does anybody update information sometimes? If not translation has no sense.

We've updated the glossary entries in a later version of the manual. They now read:

name={\acronym{GNOME}}, description={\acronym{GNOME} is a popular desktop environment and was former the default desktop environment used in Ubuntu.}

name={desktop environment}, description={A generic term to describe a \acronym{GUI} interface for humans to interact with computers. There are many desktop environments such as Unity, \acronym{GNOME}, \acronym{KDE}, \acronym{XFCE} and \acronym{LXDE}, to name a few.}

When translating the manual, if you find something that is out of date, please file a bug report (as you've done here) so we can updated in the next edition. Further, feel free to make the corrections in your translation as well. Your translation doesn't need to be a perfect translation of the manual. You can fix any errors you find in your translation so that it's better than the original.

Thanks for this bug report. It's helped us improve future editions of the manual.
