We had this report from another Greek user - the reason is that those
documents are not at all translated in Greek, so they don't appear on
the website. However the index is translated in Greek so it is there...

I've (partially) solved this in 6.10 by just building index pages for
language which have at least had a go at translating the Ubuntu desktop
guide. Obviously that's not particularly

No, not at the moment. To be honest I think that the translated help
website has not been a success - people are confused, they get half
translated documentation, and the "community" section of the website
isn't translated.

Local teams often have good documentation resources and translated
websites, forums etc all in the same place, and I think we should
encourage documentation to be hosted in the loco-sites rather than
continue with this solution after Edgy. What do people think?
