[opensuse-translation] New translator, Danish Team
by Martin Schlander 19 Sep '06

19 Sep '06

Hi guys I've read the howto on opensuse.org and have got myself a svn checkout and looked at Kbabel a little. I feel I'm pretty much ready to start working on Danish localization - though I certainly still have a lot to learn about svn, po-files and kbabel, but first I have a few other questions. There appears to be no Danish team at all - let alone a Danish coordinator. Is anyone else out there working on Danish translations? Appears no work has been done since June. Once I have translations ready will Karl Eichwalder be my go-to-guy? Do I e-mail him the new files or how does that work? I personally don't feel comfortable taking on a coordinator role at this point. What is the policy on changing existing translations? Other than untranslated stuff there's a lot of stuff that's pretty badly translated. I'd like to improve on that - and I plan to ask people in forums and newsgroups about bad translations. But should you ask someone before changing already translated strings or can I change anything I want whenever I want? Is there anyway to know what is being developed upstream and when not to translate stuff to avoid wasted work?.. other than doing all the translation between October 20 and November 4 of course. We use UTF-8 right?

In my case I just know that I miss a lot of standard words used in both. I can correct obvious errors, but for others I don't know is the word used in IT, or just normal conversations. Translation of technical text, performed by person that doesn't know professional jargon, can lead to funny translations, like in one example from college: Electrons are moving in electrical field ... Elektroni se krecu po elektricnoj livadi ... You know that it should be "u elekticnom polju ...", but translator didn't, and mistake was found during proofreading by person that was specialist for electrical engineering. The translation to Croatian is now on it's way, thanks to you, for the rest I have to wait, as I really don't want to produce fun like in example above. -- Regards, Rajko.

[opensuse-translation] Bugzilla as a project management tool
by Stanisław Małolepszy 16 Sep '06

16 Sep '06

Hello, During the last several months, the process of localization of OpenSUSE has been improved greatly thanks to efforts of Novell and the SUSE team. We owe you a big 'Thank you' for L10n wiki, mailing lists and - last but not least - SVN access. What I would like to present in this e-mail is yet another enhancement that could improve the process and make our lives easier. I'm talking namely about Novell's Bugzilla, which as of yet, is not at all used to report bugs and mistakes in the translations. For SUSE Linux 10.0, 10.1 and OpenSUSE 10.2 there have been 143 bugs reports submitted in total, for all the languages <http://tinyurl.com/j2747>. Not too many, as it seems to me. I would like that we considered and discussed here on the list the ways to improve this situation. The e-mail is mainly address to Karl and Klára, but it would be obviously beneficial if everybody took part in the discussion. Please :-) I think we could try to use Bugzilla more extensively, not only for reporting bugs about typos and untranslated files, but also as a general project management tool. Pretty much like the Mozilla guys use it now. So that 'bugs' become more like 'tickets', general issues and not only errors. Examples of cases in which bugzilla could be employed: - Tracking L10n of a new version of openSUSE (fixed when l10n is ready) - New localizer requesting a SVN access - A new file / group of files available for translation (assigning translation, tracking it). Real-life example: Packages descriptions in OpenSUSE 10.2 translation of which could be managed via the bugzilla. - Last minute fixes required after the string freeze - Local license policy issues (if any) - Unable to land translations into the system (the reason should determine assignee) - Spelling/style/grammar mistake in application Foo / window Bar To implement these various functions for Bugzilla, I would like to suggest some modifications to the current structure of bugzilla.novell.com. Three proposals follow, together with more detailed info. Proposal 1 no changes to bugzilla, least efficient - Classification: SUSE Linux - Product: OpenSUSE 10.2 - Component: Translations / L10n / I18n - Version: Alfa 4 - Subject: Polish / pl / pl-PL / pl_PL bug (requires precise user's input or moderation so that the bugs are easily findable) Proposal 2 small changes to bugzilla, provides Language component (this way it would be possible to run searches easily and to assign different owner for different components, i.e. languages) - Classification: SUSE Linux - Product: I18n - Component: Polish - Subject: OpenSUSE 10.2 Alfa4 bug (requires precise user's input or moderation so that the bugs are easily findable) Proposal 3 more changes to bugzilla (not time-consuming nonetheless) but also presumably the most efficient - Classification: I18n - Product: Polish - Component: OpenSUSE 10.2 - Version: Alfa 4 The rationale behind Proposal 3 is that internationalization, as a process, concerns many fields of Novell's activity. It includes OpenSUSE, true, but what I would like to propose is a holistic approach to managing the i18n process by means of the bugzilla. I see other "products" such as wiki, mailing list, administration, communication and so on. I know that this might sound like introducing a lot of red tape all around, but in fact it turns out (once again I refer to Mozilla) that it works and that it works well. So, what do you think? Are there any chances that this could become reality in the near future? How do you feel about it, about working through Bugzilla and the proposals I came up with. In particular, what do you think of proposal 3? Looking forward to your comments and ideas.

Hi, I have translated fully about 25 files to croatian so far.

Where do i comit/upload or send these translated .po files ? Regards, Daniel Radetic -- Daniel Radetic - Quid quid habes hodie, cras te fortasse relinquet aut modo dum lonqueris, dessinit esse tuum.

[opensuse-translation] svn procedure
by Olav Pettershagen 13 Sep '06

13 Sep '06

Hello there, I'm now commit authorized for svn and I have been browsing the wiki. In theory svn does not seem too complicated but I still feel a bit uneasy about the procedure. So how about a simple step-by-step explanation for translators who know how to translate po files and have not used svn before. I mean something like: 1. Do this to download the appropriate files to your computer (check out?) with instructions about which files are appropriate. 2. Translate the files - this is the easy part :). 3. Do this to upload translated files to the correct place on the server again (check in?) I think perhaps I would be able to eventually figure this out on my own from the wiki and svn docs. But then again, I'm quite sure that getting the correct files for translation and comitting the translations is the only svn procedure lots of translators will ever perform - so maybe it would be possible to make a straightforward howto for this particular task? I know I would appreciate it.

[opensuse-translation] openSUSE 10.2 Translation Roadmap and the Localization Portal
by Karl Eichwalder 06 Sep '06

06 Sep '06

10.2 Software Translation Roadmap ================================= As usual, there will be two translation cycles: 2006-10-06 : 1st cycle starts 2006-10-20 12:00: 1st cycle ends 2006-10-27 : 2nd cycle starts 2006-11-04 12:00: 2nd cycle ends That is ambitious--but the good news is, you as a team coordinator can submit the PO files to the SVN repository on your own. Team coordinators, please create an account on http://developer.novell.com and mail me your account name and your language. Subscribe yourself to the "dev" mailinglist that is announced at http://forge.novell.com/mailman/listinfo/suse-i18n-dev. All the other team members are encouraged to subscribe themselves to this list, too. (Aside, we must work out whether we actually need the opensuse-translation list.) You can start working on the files immediately. Be warned, POT files are still a matter of change, and thus new and fuzzy strings will appear in PO files until the 1st translation cycle officially starts. Also be prepared to resolve check-in conflicts caused by daily merging. Postpone the packages_* files. ATM, we do not intend to include these PDB related translations. So, do not waste your energy on these files! openSUSE Localization Portal Launched ===================================== openSUSE is not only for developers. You can join your localization team and help translating openSUSE into your native language. Take a look at the Localization Portal for translation statistics of your language (cheers to Klára!): http://i18n.opensuse.org/stats/index.php. Our project is stored at http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Suse-i18n -- anonymous checkouts are also possible.

Yes, I see you released openSuSE 10.2 alpha3. But what I want is a small ISO, which doesn't contain so much packages. Administrator at my university will download the final release, but not alpha. Don't care, if it is not avaiable. Now I can test in the other way (build *.mo and copy *.mo into /usr/share/YaST2/locale/vi_VN/LC_MESSAGES). I think not all translations can be tested by this way. > -- > Karl Eichwalder > R&D / Documentation SUSE Linux Products GmbH > > Key fingerprint = B2A3 AF2F CFC8 40B1 67EA 475A 5903 A21B 06EB 882E -- С уважением Phan Vĩnh Thịnh <teppi tại vnoss chấm org> http://teppi82.googlepages.com Jabber: teppi82(a)jabber.ru

[opensuse-translation] Some changes in Khmer team

Hi all, since I'll no longer work at KhmerOS, project doing OpenSUSE localization into Khmer, at the end of this month I'll transfer all of my works regarding to OpenSUSE to my team mate, Sokhem. Together with other three people at KhmerOS, he will try to make sure that Khmer will be available completely in the next version of OpenSUSE. For me, it has always been a very great time to work with all of you. The more happy time is receiving the original SUSE Linux 10.1 box as the free gift. I love it so much and of cause use it. Hmm...I wish you all the best and I'm looking forward to see OpenSUSE 10.2 in the ring.

I don't know about keymap file for console, maybe there is not any and we could just create a link to us.map.gz, like with khmer.map.gz. However, adding Marcus for SaX involvement. I cannot find anything under /usr/share/zoneinfo, what should be a time zone for Vietnam.

[opensuse-translation] special vi
by jdd 19 Jul '06

19 Jul '06

is there any kind of special Vi setup for Po file (apart syntax hilight) I mean: something that could protect the english original and let only the translation part available for editing? I always fear to type a letter on the wrong line and so begin a bug (or will this be refused by the system?) thanks jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://dodin.org/galerie_photo_web/expo/index.html http://lucien.dodin.net http://fr.susewiki.org/index.php?title=Gérer_ses_photos --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-translation-unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-translation-help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-translation] Clarification needed
by Olav Pettershagen 18 Jul '06

18 Jul '06

Hello, I'm a bit puzzled about the about the new translation procedure (if there is a new procedure). In the past there used to messages on the mailing list when new files for translation were uploaded with a pointer where the files could be be found. From some recent messages I get a feeling that this system has / will be changed. Is a more "automated" process set up now, and should I take some sort of action to include my language (nb) in that process? I might add that I'm not exactly member of a SUSE translation team or anything like that - I don't think such a thing exists for nb. Anyhow, I get a feeling that I have missed something about future translations of openSUSE - so maybe someone could enlighten me.

[opensuse-translation] Vietnamese language support in OpenSuSE
by Phan Vinh Thinh 18 Jul '06

18 Jul '06

Hi, I'm maintaining the vi.opensuse.org wiki. And I'm using SuSE everyday. I like its nice interface, especially the KDE's one :). I saw that many languages are supported in SuSE, include Russian, my second language. What have to do if I want to see my mother tongue in that supported langugages list? -- С уважением Phan Vĩnh Thịnh <teppi82 tại gmail chấm com> http://teppi82.googlepages.com Jabber: teppi82(a)jabber.ru

by Karl Eichwalder 26 Jun '06

26 Jun '06

Hi out there, welcome to the opensuse-translation mailinglist. This list is meant to discuss and coordinate SUSE Linux translations. Here we can also talk about localization requirements. To avoid too much traffic I'd like to propose to coordinate the translation work do be done by the language team in the wiki on dedicated team pages.
