Hi Josef -- and many, many thanks for your hard work on getting the 
Release Notes translated!

I've just rebuilt the Czech version and pushed it to the 
docs.fedoraproject.org repo; it will become visible the next time that 
the webserver synchronises with the repo (sometime in the next few hours).

I also corrected a small number of little XML errors that prevented the 
book from building properly. You can see them here:
http://git.fedorahosted.org/git/docs/?p=docs/release-notes.git;a=commitdiff;h=d7e660d5fa987faac69ae0f5256ba506e4fb4381

I notice that you still have the cs.po file checked out through 
Transifex; if you check this back in, you'll over-write those changes, 
so you should either download a fresh copy of cs.po, or if you have made 
changes in your local copy that you haven't checked in yet, please fix 
those same errors in your local copy before uploading :)

Getting from the po file submitted in Transifex to pages on the web site 
is a long, complicated, and frustrating process that involves wrestling 
with a couple of incompatible tools ;)

You can get a feel for the first stages of the process here:

-- with a correction here: 
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-trans-list/2009-May/msg00169.html

I seriously suggest that it's not worth learning this process unless you 
have a lot of time and need more pain in your life -- both the 
incompatible tools (Transifex and Publican) are about to have major 
upgrades soon that will make almost all of this irrelevant...

Cheers
