Page doesn't mention the translation process
I just noticed the following message on gnucash-devel:
http://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/2015-February/038536.html
mentioning an implication of documentation updates to translations. Currently (16 February 2015) the documentation updates procedure doesn't even mention the translation process.

- So? The wiki can't document everything, especially when it comes to craft knowledge.
- Thank you VERY much for the link! I believe that link is a very helpful cue.
- The email above suggested adding comments (for translators to see) embedded in the DocBook source to point to major rearrangements or added sections. I haven't yet looked through the existing source for such comments, but my thought was if they are helpful this page could suggest where and how to add them, following whatever convention has already been established.
