[opensuse-factory] opensuse localization
Hi, As the new release is nearing, someone asked me, how localization works in openSUSE. Hungarian is already an existing language, but the process described at https://en.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_Localization_Guide#Joining_an_Existing_Team does not work here, as the previous coordinator for Hungarian has left the project a long time ago. How can the Hungarian localization work restarted to have a better translated Leap release?

Well, start by subscribing to the opensuse-translation at opensuse.org mail list, and ask there for details. At least one on your team needs an account on the translation cvs server. If there are several members, you should consider using the vertaal platform, or another coordination method. However, the process for translating Leap is stuck. Nobody seems to be capapable of creating the Leap branch, so we can't even start translating. I don't know what to do. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.

Noone appears to know the status for translations for Leap. I assume the languages translated for SLE12sp1 by paid translators (including Hungarian afaict) will have localization at least pretty well covered except for maybe desktop files. See https://i18n.opensuse.org/stats/SLE12-SP1/toplist.php For other languages (e.g. my language DA) there's complete confusion. Possibly I could have translated the SLE12sp1 branch. But there was never any "official" response if that process would work and be accepted, and what the deadlines would be etc. If there weren't enough resources to care about Leap localization before the release, which might be understandable. Maybe we need a plan and a deadline for providing translations as online updates not too long after the release. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

- From the point of view of translators, translating after release is doable. Has been done in the past, in fact. However, the basic problem is the same, we don't have the structure to start working. - -- Cheers Carlos E. R.
