Re: [GNUCTT] questions about contributing translation

[Fanxi Li]

Welcome to join the group. 

GNU CTT is mainly focusing on translating the web pages of gnu.org. Although it's also our responsibility to translate GNU software, such work has never been done in recent years. 

Please refer to http://www.gnu.org/server/standards/translations/zh-cn/workflow.zh-cn.html to understand the workflow of GNU CTT. Basically, you need first to announce in the mailing list that you are going to work some item to avoid conflict and duplicated work, then get the pot file from www group CVS repository and translate it, check in the translated po file in to CTT CVS and request for review in the mailing list. After reviewing, CTT coordinator will upload the translation to www group CVS to get it published on gnu.org.

Hi list,

I'm recently doing some translations (en -> zh_CN)
for Debian,then wondered that if contributing translation
to GNU differs from contributing to Debian.

So I have some questions:
1. For Debian, I can just pull the *.po file from the trunk branch
   on anonscm.debian.org. Then generate a patch after modifying,
   and just send it to address@hidden, opening a new bug.
   Of course this is sort of debian's style.
   I wonder if I can do the same thing to address@hidden,
   when updating a translation?
2. Apart from ftp://alpha.gnu.org, where can I found the 'trunk
   version' of a gnu software (i.e. newer than alpha). I didn't
   find it.
3. I'm just a STUDENT and a normal debian user, but seems that
   GNU is strict on translation quality, any advise about
   contributing translations?

Thanks :)
