2        When the document is finished, the document should be edited
3        by another member of the GDP for spelling, clarity, and
4        DocBook markup. It should also be read by an application
5        author to make sure the document is technically accurate.

7        After the document has been edited and checked for technical
8        accuracy, it is ready to be combined with the application or
9        documentation package.  This is typically done by passing the
10        document to the application or package developer.  In some
11        cases, the documents can be committed directly into CVS,
12        however this should only be done after obtaining permission to
13        make CVS commits from the developer.  Note that in many cases,
14        the application may need to be modified to correctly link to
15        the documentation.  The packaging system (tarballs and binary
16        packages) may also need to be modified to include the
17        documentation in the package.  Generally, this should be done
18        by the developers.

20        The final step is to email the GNOME Translation Team at
21        <tt>&lt;<a href="mailto:gnome-i18n@nuclecu.unam.mx">gnome-i18n@nuclecu.unam.mx</a>&gt;</tt> to notify them that
22        there is a new document for them to translate.
