Open Stack

Hi, Gabriel

Are there any progress or updates with the translation management tools?

I tried to slice the manuals into pieces and uploaded the templates to
Transifex.
I also tried to enable Transifex in the Git repository. All things run
well.
I will vote for Transifex now.

You can try my current effort here:
https://www.transifex.net/projects/p/openstack-manuals-i18n/resources/

and welcome for suggestions.

Regards
Daisy
