What is the work-flow for an article like?
The editors upload new articles to the todo_* directories and enter them into the task assignment database. If you have the time to edit or translate something, invoke the detail view for an article by clicking on the related entry on the task assignment page. A new view is displayed that allows you to take (and also cancel, if neccessary) tasks. Then download the article by clicking on the file link or directly downloading it from the FTP server. After finishing the task, upload the result to the raw_* directory on the FTP server. German articles that have been translated to English are placed in raw_english and vice versa. Add a two-digit version number to the file name. If the ZIP archive that contains the original article is called feature_2.zip, for instance, the translated one is called feature_2-00.zip. Then change the translation status on the task assignment page accordingly and send a short message to the mailing list. Now someone else downloads the article from the raw_* dir
