Hints for newcomers

Hello,

Only a part of gimp-help-2 is updated to v2.4 up now. If you translate non-updated files, you will miss new features and translate deprecated ones.

Unless you update your language directly. In that case, it would be a pity not to write the 'en' part also. Updating is a hard job. Progress is slow. I'm afraid this work will need several years.
We are desperately looking for doc writers.

Updated files are listed at http://wiki.gimp.org/gimp/GimpDocsWip.

BTW, please keep the English parts as simple as possible (in regard to grammar, at least). English does not have the same sophisticated grammatical constructs as other European languages, see:
