>  "Tutorials": [

>  "Development": [

>    [ "Translation", "translator.php" ]
>  ]

Hi,
We were discussing with Matthias about how much do we want to rely on
userbase's wiki to have applications information.

I think that in edu.kde.org we just want to have the static text we need and
some screenshots and then put the day to day information on the userbase so
that if anybody wants to contribute in any way he will be able to do so
easily.

Any thoughts?
Aleix
