Currently, I'm translating the FreeBSD Webpage to Hungarian, and I
intend to send the webpage back to the project when I have finished it.
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.
