It would be nice to do the translation with Transifex. In contrast to github, Transifex is much easier for non-technical people. Moreover we can get an good overview how much is translated. Other projects also use Transifex for their translations:

Implementation

This mail already explains some basic steps and demonstrates it in this fork. Moreover the documentation on the Transifex website is useful as well. Sphinx provides instructions as well.

Current State 2017-01-02

I used this branch https://github.com/ThomasG77/OSGeoLive-doc/tree/transifex . Then I did this commands:

First it is necessary to change these lines in the conf.py file https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc/blob/master/conf.py#L25 .

The automatical reading of the verion number causes troubles. So the the version number should simply be "hard-coded":

version = '10.5'

Then:

make gettext
sphinx-intl update -p _build/locale
tx init
sphinx-intl update-txconfig-resources --pot-dir _build/locale --transifex-project-name osgeolive
tx push -s

Now the English source language should be pushed to Transifex.

Changing the language team line by "Language-Team: ENGLISH <https://live.osgeo.org/en/contact.html\n" seems mandatory.
