[Bf-docboard] Serious Issue: Versioning - Proposal

[Chris Burt]

To me the multiple versions of different docs will spread thin the 
already small resources of the project and result in multiple 
badly-translated and fragmented copies of a document that *would* have 
been one well-translated English copy. This just looks like a few people 
make more work for themselves than they have time for. Focus the time 
and effort on one translation I say.
