Hi,

If I understand things correctly, it should be translated where it resid=
es  =

now, on http://www.flossmanuals.net/

Once translated it should be available as HTML, PDF, EPUB (free), and ha=
rd  =

copy (for additional fee).

If you have translated text, you can also use XeTeX to make HTML, PDF an=
d  =

EPUB from it. It is not very hard to add formatting and Chinese figures =
or  =

additional remarks to it (it's GPL). The only problem is availability.  =

Such translation should be advertised on forums to reach Google search a=
nd  =

its reader.

If the authors of this manual want to ship it with KDE, they can convert=
  =

it to docbook and add the item to KHelpCenter. If they do so, we can  =

translate the manual in a common way.

That's my 2 cents.

Best regards,
Yuri
