What is RSI?

If you made our direcory, it should be doc/ko... (ko is language code,
and kr is country code... like this, in the doc/ja ja is language
code, jp is country code...)
If we completed translation, I'll submit it using send-pr.

Then... We'll start from doc/handbook. FAQ will take longer...
(personally, I think handbook is worth than FAQ)

Thanks for your information. Be Happy!
