There are parts that aren't worth to translate, because they're changing fluently or irrelevant for the Hungarian community, etc. For example, I don't want to translate all the release notes, because this means a huge work, and I can't guarantee that I would be able to keep it up-to-date and translate the release notes after each release. I will link these pages with using &enbase;. I could use "../" as well, but I think that would be quite awkward and not really transparent. Using either &base; or &enbase; in the whole codebase makes the whole code much more transparent and clear As I see, the French Webpage uses the same approach, but e.g. the German Webpage uses &base;/../ in these case, which is very ugly. It would be nice if we introduced a new rule for this. If you accept my point I can work on reviewing the translations and sending patches to standardize this, so that we have smart, transparent and consistent code in the whole webpage. Gabor Kovesdan
