[opensuse-translation] What's the deal with opensuse-org.po?

1 Aug 2012

      Hi,

I just had the time to take a look at opensuse-org.po and I'm a little bit 
confused.

1.) First entry is 'en' (comment: type: Attribute 'lang' of: <html>; file 
en/index.shtml:2)
- Am I supposed to translate it to my locale country code? Say for Germany to 
de?

2.) Fifth entry is "search in blog-posts" (untranslated), when I look at 
opensuse.org I already find that string translated into german. 
Accident/Purpose?

3.) Many entries consist of large html syntax fragments, where I'm not sure 
what to translate. Shouldn't it be possible to just extract the parts that 
need to be translated?  

Should the value="en" be translated to value="de" in the following example? 
(4th entry)
"<input type="hidden" name="language" value="en" /> <select id="searchscope" 
name="searchscope">" 

Is there anything that needs to be translated in the next example? (9th entry)
"</select> <input type="text" name="searchstring" class="textfield" /> <input 
type="image" alt="run search" title="run search" class="searchbutton" 
src="http://static.opensuse.org/hosts/www.o.o/images/frontpage/magnifier.png" 
/>"

Hope someone can help to clarify this :-)

Regards,
Michael
