</I>>>>><i> No, it is about the content, misuse of words, repetition of clauses,
</I>>>>><i> omissions, vagueness...
</I>>>>><i> It isn't a problem so far, corrections can be brought during the English
</I>>>>><i> version improving.
</I>>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> 2 points:
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> 1. It is good and important that misuse or wrong spelling of words are
</I>>>><i> reported. But the French original version is not just a text like blog
</I>>>><i> entries or website contents. It is a legally binding document, so it
</I>>>><i> can not easyly be changed like the other texts.
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> 2. The english version has no legal status at all, it is not legally
</I>>>><i> binding, it's contents can not be used in legal discussions - it is
</I>>>><i> only a translation for the international readers to understand what
</I>>>><i> the official statutes are talking about.
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i> --
</I>>>><i> wobo
</I>>>><i>
</I>>>><i>
</I>>><i> So should we write somewhere the possible improvements to the French
</I>>><i> legal document (be they typos or misuse of words),
</I>>><i> and when we're done with the translation (which is alsa a proofreading
</I>>><i> of the French text), send all those suggestions at the same time so
</I>>><i> that the French document can be updated?
</I>>><i>
</I>>><i> If that's what we choose I will restore revision 1 on the page
</I>>><i> mageia_org_statutes, and maybe create a page
</I>>><i> mageia_org_statutes_errata to stock our suggestions?
</I>>><i>
</I>><i> IMHO this is a very good idea. The original version should be restored
</I>><i> and this way you can provide the people in charge with the complete
</I>><i> list of improvement suggestions.
</I>><i>
</I>><i>
</I>The fact is, to translate a text, the original must be perfectly
understanded and translation is an excellent proofreading. The web page
mageia_org_statutes_en still have the French text with comments in italic.
