Re: [Maposmatic-dev] Making it easier to translate

[Guttorm Flatabø]

Hello again,

2012/4/4 David MENTRE <address@hidden>

 

This is an old task (Dec. 2009): https://savannah.nongnu.org/task/?9997 

 

Nobody has worked on it. ;-)

I get the draft :) I've setup translation at Transifex, which is pretty easily done with their client ("transifex-client" in both PYPI and the Fedora repositories). I've only set up the ocitysmap module for now, and some error in the .po or on their server end prevented me from adding "it" and "ar", but it should be sufficient to show how it works.

 

Please note that it is requirement for me for such a translation
platform to rely on Free Software, so that potentially we could deploy
it on our servers.

"Transifex is an upstream-friendly cross-project localization platform. Mainline development branch is at http://code.transifex.org/" It is free software (GPL2).

 

BTW: I wanted to change a spelling error ("splitted") on http://wiki.maposmatic.org/doku.php?id=start, but my user (dittaeva) does not have access. Can this be fixed?

BTW2: I thought I had received the translation invitation e-mail because I had contributed translations before. However, while finding out where bugs are handled I see that my submission hasn't been touched (or so it seems at least) since I submitted on the 25th of January. Did I submit to the wrong place, are bugs handled elsewhere?

BTW3: Theres a "Test gettext" string in the ocitysmap.pot file. Surely that is not needed for translation? Also message on ocitysmap2/layoutlib/multi_page_renderer.py:484 and ocitysmap2/layoutlib/single_page_renderers.py:293 seem to be the same, only the latter doesn't have so many line shifts. Unavoidable?
