Subject: Re: [Kicad-doc-devs] Thai translation

Hi BK and welcome!

Starting with Weblate sounds like a good plan.  Right now the user manual (English sources) is being (slowly) re-written to prepare for 6.0 RC (expected hopefully in the next few months).

So, it might be good to only translate the updated parts (mostly just the "kicad" and "pcbnew" chapters so far) to avoid wasted effort.

There has been some discussion to create a new "getting started" guide, because the existing one is old enough that it does not show the latest KiCad workflow.  But, we have not made any progress on actually doing that yet :)

Best,
Jon

Hi Team,

I am new to the team and want to join as the translator and document writer in Thai language.  I am working full time in my own business and plan to use my experience in using Altium Designer for more than 15years to match languages.  I am new to the community and this environment. I may not understand the exact process and sometimes require team to help me.  I will start from GUI translation in weblate and also 'Getting Started' guide. Later on should be full document 'Creating Schematics' and 'Creating PCBs'.

All suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
BK.
