As people so far preferred the second option, translation will be done
the same way as the Download/Donate strings - i.e. what silverstripe
will need in the end is the lang.php file additions..

So go ahead and translate the strings you see on
view-source:http://www.libreoffice.org/ (as people asked where the
source is: There's not really much else stored in silverstripe atm -
the code Camillle provided was put into a silverstripe template (ss
file) with only very little modifications (see other post, the base
href for example, just to have it find its css and javascript) - but
the code itself is that - so when I'd point you to the files on the
server, it wouldn't look much differently :-)

But as the site makes heavy use of css, please test your strings in
your webbrowser's webdevelopment tools - for example when you change
the button text, make sure it fits the button, etc.

I will create separate strings for header and paragraph, but only one
string for the paragraph. So for example on the discovery page there
is:

<div class="line_bottom line_top clearfix">
                <a name="contributing"></a>
                  <img src="mysite/images/contributing.png"
width="190" height="200" alt="Contributing is even easier than ever!"
class="left"/>
                  <h3>Contributing is even easier than ever!</h3>
                  <p><a
href="https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/";>Gerrit</a> is used for our code
review and easy contribution - close to 1500 code changes reviewed and
merged with it!</p>

              </div>

That will end up in a string
DISCOVER.ContributeTitle (with content "Contributing is even easier
than ever!") that will be used for both the alt-tag in the image as
well as for the content of the <h3>

And there will be another string
DISCOVER.ContributeText with content of '<a
href="https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/";>Gerrit</a> is used for our code
review and easy contribution - close to 1500 code changes reviewed and
merged with it!' that will be used for the content of the <p> tag.

As those stings will contain other tags (links and linebreaks mostly),
make sure to use proper quoting. Feel free to change the quotes for
the links to ' if that makes it easier for you.

With that in mind, you should be able to start preparing the
translations. I'll prepare the en_US master that you then can use to
add your strings.

ciao
