+
+          <p>In order to make the process of translating
+          <a href="https://www.freebsd.org/docs/books.html">FreeBSD's
+            official articles and books</a> more accessible to new
+            contributors, the project is adopting
+            <a href="https://weblate.org/">Weblate</a> as its
+            web-based continuous localization platform.</p>
+
+          <p>This tool has been in use for some months by some of our
+            translation teams (pt_BR, es_ES and zh_CN) and due to the
+            excellent results obtained and the maturity of the
+            workflow adopted, we believe we are ready to open it to
+            new collaborators.</p>
+
+          <p>With the adoption of this new tool the translation
+            process has become quite simple, and anyone willing to
+            donate a few minutes to the project can contribute to
+            it!</p>
+
+          <p>If you are interested in contributing to the
+            documentation project by translating official documents
+            you can get more information at our <a
