How to change text on winehq.org ?

[Marco Meijer]

Hi WineDevs,

If make the packages for mandriva on sourceforge. And the text on the 
download page on the website (winehq,org) for mandriva is getting old.
Who can I write a mail to change the text ? I already tried web-admin ad 
winehq.org some weeks ago but no reaction so far.

greetings

Marco

I think you'll want to make a patch against the website git repository. 
  See http://source.winehq.org/git/website.git/.  You can send the 
patch to wine-patches as usual.  The file you probably want to edit is 
templates/en/download.template.  I'm not sure how translation changes 
get propagated.

Make sure to note in the subject that it is for the [website] project. 
That will help the maintainer pick it out of the patch stream.

Hi,

There are 3 translation template files for the download page:
(From the root directory of your local git repository)
./templates/de/download.template
./templates/pl/download.template
./templates/en/download.template
I think You should update all of them (That's what I did for the Slackware
package description anyway ;) ).
http://wiki.winehq.org/GitWine details how to create a local clone of the git
repository and how to generate and format the patch.

It would be much nicer if the website knew when a translation became out
of date.  As it is sometimes the translations get much older than the
English version and become less useful than an untranslated document.
