news items and putting them into the localized web pages.
If the translation is available it will be used, otherwise
the original (English) version of the news item will be used.
- The structure of transtable.xml is revised. <word> should be
bracketed with <group>.
- A sorting order of the FreeBSD mirror sites rendered using
mirrors.xml has been determined by sort(1).
- A template "transtable-lookup" has been added for localization on
word-by-word basis.
- Replace English month names in news.xml, press.xml, and
advisories.xml with numbers that correspond to the names.
The number->name translation is performed on the fly.
- Since information in mirrors.xml is used in www/ tree, it depends on
doc/ tree now. When WITHOUT_DOC is defined it can be built without
doc/ tree, but some information becomes unavailable. For example,
a list of the mirror sites generated in index.html becomes a dummy
one, and calling "transtable-lookup" with a word returns the word
itself.
Neither www/ nor doc/ build should be broken due to this commit, but
until the necessary changes are applied in the localized directories,
the transtable does not work; it simply generates non-localized contents
even if transtable.xsl is used.
to process generated HTML. This not cause any side effects except
leaving some character entities in their numeric form instead
converting them into alphabetical notation (< instead of <),
but since all browsers understand such cases it is not a problem.
This commit should make all translations tidy clean, since
tidy should not arise entities conversion problem as it did
for long time before. Therefore all occurences of manual settings
of TIDYFLAGS and NO_TIDY declarations for translations are removed.
Also clean *OPTS/*FLAGS variables declaration like it was done in doc/ tree
some time ago. Currently all local additions to commands parameters that used
in make process should be passed thru *FLAGS variables. All variables
with OPTS suffix are reserved for internal use of web.site.mk now.
Cleanup part is based on work done by Cyrille Lefevre <clefevre-lists@noos.fr>
No objections from: -doc
Requested by: Russian and Japanese translation teams
* Use make variables instead of hard coding commands, paths, and
options.
* Wrap some long lines.
* Replace shell loops with make for loops, etc.

updated in ages (see docs/19189), and Wolfram has removed the link to it
from index.sgml, so there's not really a need to build it. We can
re-enable it if/when Nik (or someone else) finishes his script to
auto-update it.
