Weblate 1 time per day commit all changes into the repo https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-doc-translate . Ah thanks, I'll try to keep an eye on this.

It's quite a tough system to learn if you're used to Windows and being mostly in English makes it even harder for most. Because I think it's a great OS, I would like to make the documentation more accessible by translating the important parts in Dutch. I notice a lot is still untranslated and some translations could also be improved. I have 12 years experience as a professional technical translator English to Dutch. My knowledge of Linux is intermediate and in FreeBSD I would call myself an advanced beginner. But I'm eager to learn and probably will learn a lot during translating. I've already contacted remko@freebsd.org and rene@freebsd.org . Remko is not active anymore and rene pointed me to you. He's still active, but not on translating. At the moment I'm reading through the documentation about contributing. I've started my own GitHub and have discovered Asciidoctor. But I'm puzzled how to proceed. I would like to know what would be the best route to follow in being a contributor. I will continue reading, studying and experimenting, but maybe you can give me some clues in the right direction.
