getting it/ to build again

Ciao amici Italiani, The Italian version of the manual hasn't built for awhile, because "configure.php --with-lang=it" is loaded with errors. Over the years all the changes to en/ have added up and today it's overwhelming. I propose the following options, please consider them and choose one so we can get it building again: A) Start over from scratch (delete all files) B) Delete all old/broken files, until it builds C) Slowly go through and fix everything I suggest (B) as it means leaving files that still work although (A) is tempting. If you choose (C) then I'm hopeful someone here could do it. Or, maybe there is a (D) option? Or has this already been discussed? The main problem is it/language-snippets.ent has namespace issues, which is a problem that libxml 2.7.4+ introduced onto the world (or at least to us). This is why translations (and English) ended up putting 'xmlns="http://docbook.org/ns/docbook"' all throughout language-snippets.ent and a few other places (like language-defs.ent and extentions.ent). However, there are other problems too. What do you guys think? Once it builds, it'll start showing up here (on the doc.php.net server): - http://docs.php.net/download-docs.php?sizes=1 And once it's ready (like around 20% translated), we can throw it onto all the mirrors. Regards, Philip
