Re: Automatically Generating an offline OpenChain Conformance Handbook - Beta - Comments/Action Needed

Gary O'Neall
Note that if we translate the questionnaire JSON files (which I believe is planned), translated versions of the handbook will also be generated automatically.
A bit more detail on how this works: - The English version of the questionnaire is a file questionnaire.json in the conformance-questionnaire github repository - Translated versions can be added appending the language code to the questionnaire file name (e.g. questionnaire-ja.json) - A PDF document will be automatically generated for all translated versions of the questionnaire (e.g. questionnaire-ja.pdf)
The tools to produce the PDF document is open source and in the scripts directory in the conformance-questionnaire github repository.
If there is interest in this approach, I plan on updating the scripts to provide a better formatted document. Suggestions for improvements are welcome.
