There is no formal method for translating these documents, as they are 
inherently free flowing.

If you note which version control (svn) revision of the documentation 
your translation is based on, you can perform a diff between that 
revision and any future changes to the English documentation. 
Alternatively, if you don't want to have to note which revision it is 
based on, you can check when it was last committed and use that as your 
reference point.

Hope this helps.
