[opensuse-translation] 2012 - what next?

A Happy New Year to those, who celebrated it! I saw some of you already committing updates to the new openSUSE SVN server, what is great :) The SVN commit mailinglist also basically works. I subscribed some of you with your openSUSE SVN mail address to the berlios mailinglist and set the status to "nomail". This means, that your SVN commits could be mailed to the list, but you will not receive these mails (if you want to receive those mails, please subscribe with your normal mail address at https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/opensuse-i18n-svn ). We will probably switch to an openSUSE ML in the future. Next week or so, I'll ask the developers to submit new pot files "for testing". -- Karl Eichwalder SUSE LINUX Products GmbH R&D / Documentation Maxfeldstraße 5 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nürnberg) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-translation+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-translation+owner(a)opensuse.org

The translations themselves have the same legal status regardless of you using vertaal or not. The .po files usually have a license preamble, and that is what applies. As to CC not being free, I disagree. It was invented precisely for being contrary to the copyright. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

[opensuse-translation] Outdated software-opensuse-org pot file
by Andrea Turrini 23 Nov '11

23 Nov '11

Hi all, I have noted that the software-opensuse-org pot file is outdated: - it contains a link to http://en.opensuse.org/index.php?title=SDB:BitTorrent_and_openSUSE but this page has been moved to http://en.opensuse.org/SDB:BitTorrent - the links in the Getting Help box are not available in the pot file (only their descriptions) and they refer only to the English version of a page, so it is not possible to change the links in order to use corresponding translated pages (as happens for other links in the text of the page). Is it possible to update the pot file after fixing these things?

[opensuse-translation] [IT version] Not traslated strings in oS 12.1
by G G 22 Nov '11

22 Nov '11

Hi All, today i've installed openSUSE 12.1 (with Italian traslation) and i've noticed many strings not traslated yet. Some are very important IMHO: after-installation welcome screen , GNOME 3 menus ... Screenshot examples: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/213/schermata1erroretraduzi.png/ http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/39/schermata1erroretraduzi.png/ Why those strings have not been yet translated? Will be shipped patches for these kind of errors?

Hi, based on > Dne Čt 17. listopadu 2011 15:36:59, Andreas Jaeger napsal(a): > we've put the landing page (www.opensuse.org) now on github.com and if > you like to translate it there are two options: > * Translation via github tools (my preferred way) I must to ask: What way is the best for openSUSE Wiki translation? Is there some recommended to-do? For example, I'm going to translate: http://en.opensuse.org/Portal:12.1 to Czech. How to do it? Is there some SVN/GIT repository (with .po/.pot files), or should I to write directly into Wiki? Thanks.

[opensuse-translation] landing page
by Andreas Jaeger 17 Nov '11

17 Nov '11

Hi, you've overwhelmed me with translations - thanks a lot! we've put the landing page (www.opensuse.org) now on github.com and if you like to translate it there are two options: * Translation via github tools (my preferred way) * Send me an email at aj(a)suse.de and attach the files to it For translation, please not only translate the text but check whether the links are fine for your language as well. So, the German translation can change the wiki link from http://en.opensuse.org to http://de.opensuse.org etc. If you have questions, please ask! Github workflow * Go to http://github.com * Create an account and login * Go to https://github.com/openSUSE/landing-page To edit the pages via wiki: * Click on the fork button and fork to yourself * You'll be redirect to your version * click on any file, say "Edit this file" * Make your changes and comment them * Add the end click on "Pull request" and say some nice words and then "Send pull request" * Now one of the admins will review the changes and take them Alternatively you can checkout the pages via git or svn and do push requests. For svn read: https://github.com/blog/966-improved-subversion-client-support The url is https://github.com/openSUSE/landing-page/trunk Just the diffs alone make it easier for me to see what's changing...

Hello, I was asked for translations to Turkish for the Google Code In. Is there a Turk who can help me on that? First I need the files that MUST be translated (some are more than others). Then can he/she help me on review? Thanks in advance.
