I may be missing something, but I don't believe the move to Pier necessarily requires those updates to be done in the Tex version first.  You can just search for the required text in Pier format.  The PDF would still be available to reference for original context.  My understanding is that the Tex source doesn't have page numbers, so this process with Pier would be no different from Tex.  The sooner the move to a CI build of Pier, the lower the barrier of entry is for helpers.

One thing I am concerned about are the current PharoByExample branches.  I was thinking of just merging all of them without much upfront review - doing this after the conversion to Pier.

I am curious about the process to translate the English version to other languages versions, and how they keep in sync.  Rather than manually maintaining a list of things to keep in sync, could you record the last-synched-English-version, then when you do a pass at synching a language you could diff that to the current-English-version.  Getting a bit exotic, perhaps with the book being Smalltalk-based-Pier, if paragraphs were somehow linked between languages, then updates to the English version would show up inline with the language-specific-CI-build.  This might require a two-step CI build - one 'working' version and one 'synched' version.

I started to check if I can convert pbe into pier but I stopped because first we need to go and clean the pbe document 

I have a log here of what I should have a look

I pay attention to do it in the frnech and english version in parallel.
Then once this is done we could migrate to pier.
