HowTo translate this document
As in many free software projects, translations of this document are kept in .po files. More information about the process can be found in /usr/share/doc/debian-edu-doc/README.debian-edu-squeeze-manual-translations. The svn-repository (see below) contains this file too. Take a look there and at the language specific conventions if you want to help translating this document.
To commit your translations you need to be a member of the Alioth project debian-edu. To translate, you just need to check out some files from from svn (which can be done anonymously) and create patches. Please file a bug against the debian-edu-doc package and attach the .po file to the bugreport. You can find some instructions on how to submit bugs here.
You can check out the debian-edu-doc source anonymously with the following command (you need to have the subversion package installed for this to work):
svn co svn://svn.debian.org/svn/debian-edu/trunk/src/debian-edu-doc
