Fedora Documentation and Websites missing for F15
A number of Fedora Documentation modules and Fedora Websites modules were not available for translation for Fedora 15 as they could not be migrated to transifex.net before the release. However, translation can be continued for some of these modules which are being gradually migrated by the writers to transifex.net.
