translation drupal translation documentation i18n

Backstory:

Ben, Dan Also it would be nice if you could give minimal indication for dummies about how to properly translate english pages ( into better than survival spanish and french) - i have tried to translate action earlier and am [not] sure i succeeded

Internal direction: document how to do a translation and post it to the Agaric site, we can point people to it.

Here's the official documentation, not sure it has the basic 'how to translate a node' - http://drupal.org/node/133977

From our friends at OpenConcept, part of much more extensive documentation on translating containers and categories as well as other content, most of which is specific to the contributed Category.module and not relevant to WSF2008.
