<p>The Project does not really concern itself with these, since
they are a part of the base system. The exception to this is the
Japanese team, who are translating them. There is no reason other
volunteers could not step in to translate the manual pages to other

<p>The manual pages are part of the base system, but are also
an important component of the documentation. Both the
Documentation project and source committers update and
maintain manual pages.</p>

<p>At present, the Japanese team has translated many of the
manual pages. Other volunteers could pitch in to translate
the manual pages to other languages as well.</p></li>
