Want to join forces? / Can I add your stuff? I want to release the full manual in modern Swedish + English and release it with a CC3.0 license. I have heard there are transcriptions floating around already (in gbg and Gävle), but they declined to share. //Andreas, friend of Jim https://docs.google.com/document/d/136pFheQ8iGhsA-BsAv0R5jGveo6oqatk6ZmthGCowvI/edit

I would be delighted for co-conspirators. As you can see in my repo, I have made a decent start in getting something looking vaguely English-looking. The source code also has a raw transcription of the source document interspersed with the English.

I am not 100% sure what the best way to deal with multiple languages is, one model would be to have the existing "top-level" document as a main entry point for the English, then have another (palaestra-sv.tex?) as an entrypoint for the Swedish, with perhaps sv-page-NNN.tex for the individual pages?

I'll be happy to help out too. We (including alltidandreas) are simultaneously transcribing, translating and exploring the text. I just have to learn to work in GitHub.... //P-A
