I am a bit confused about the discussion, particularly about maintaining lang packs in STABLE and HEAD.

Can somebody please provide instructions similar to what we have in the translation document.  I mean what cvs command do we issue to get the en pack to translate?  As well as the cvs command for checking out the lang pack like tl, in its new location.

Currently I just checkout and update one copy each of the en, tl and tl_utf8, what other things do I have to do now?

Sorry about the confusion, Roel, but don't worry.

The discussion is just about what WILL be happening, so everyone has some warning. It hasn't changed yet.

Even when it does, you will use CVS in almost the same way as you do now. The difference is that the Moodle files will be in one directory, and the lang files will be in another directory. You won't have to worry about STABLE or HEAD in the new scheme as we won't use them for languages.

I will definitely update the translation document together with Koen to make everything very clear.
