After a long time I am pleased to announce a new FreeBSD Dutch Documentation Project update. René Ladan has been working very hard on finishing his translation and updating the handbook, while I am struggling with the PPP and Slip chapter. It’s at 62% currently and is the last chapter to be finished before we have an entire translation available. Once that’s in play, René and I can hopefully keep the situation under control and see for further translations that we can do. We have a range of articles that we are interested in into translating, as well as the webpages which have some initial work from Siebrand Mazeland.

Personally I am looking into the Checkpoint article so that it it is up to date again (I am working with the materials quite often) and I am willing to see how we can add a Juniper article (or merge the two) so that we have some big players into the documentation base again.

Ofcourse I have several PR’s still open to improve the PPP and SLIP chapter, mostly with regard to the console setup and things like that. While translating I found several areas that need improvement (it’s a mess wrt. style, but that’s a different topic) :-)

I hope that the next message will be that I finished the translation of the final chapter so that I can help René with translating the updates that still need work. Some chapters are really hard to improve after they had major improvements :-)

Thanks René!
