[libreoffice-l10n] Pootle upgrade
Hi, This week we upgrade our Pootle server, translations.documentfoundation.org. With help of Pootle developers, the newest version of Pootle will be deployed. During upgrade we may shut down the service, so please do not be surprised. LibreOffice 3.5 files were backed up and removed from the interface, because there will be no more releases of LibreOffice 3.5.x. Outdated extension translations were backed up and removed, too. Migration takes a lot of time, it will take less, when we don't migrate obsoleted projects. After successful upgrade, I will import LibreOffice 4.0 files, so you can start to prepare for the next major release. Before that I would like to minimize the amount of changed strings and migrate translations in a smart way. For example many cosmetic fixes have been made to en-US help files, and UI is moving from .src format to new XML based .ui format, while the strings remained the same.

What about 3.x versions?

Thanks a lot to you and Pootle devs for the work you're doing on this. Could you give us a link where we can find more information about the transformation from src to xml file format? Also I've seen messages on the dev list that the wiki help will become the primary help in the future, could you give us more information on this or where we can find it, I would like to understand the process :) Thanks in advance Kind regards Sophie -- Sophie Gautier sophie.gaut...@documentfoundation.org Tel:+33683901545 Membership Certification Committee Member - Co-founder The Document Foundation -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to l10n+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/l10n/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

If you are interested in details, it is documented in the wiki: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/WidgetLayout However, this change will be transparent to translators. I remember when module cui was cut out of module svx back in OOo times, and suddenly all translators had a lot of untranslated dialogs, which were translated before. It would be better to avoid this situation, and migrate translations centrally. I have not tried to do that, but I will find out something. Also I've seen messages on the dev list that the wiki help will become the primary help in the future, could you give us more information on this or where we can find it, I would like to understand the process :) Thanks in advance ... in the future, yes, that may never come, so I cannot tell anything else about this. It is still in planning phase. I will oppose any change that does not provide a smooth migration path to save our years of work that we have put into help translations. Ideally this process will be transparent to translators as well. I like the general concept of web based help, and I will help to make it happen. I'll inform this mailing list, when I know more.

Re: [libreoffice-l10n] Pootle upgrade
Unlike the current format, the glade UI files can be be translated using gettext, so do you plan to finally switch LibreOffice to gettext, so that we can have the possibility to test translations without having to recompile the whole univers (ie something most translator are not capable to do)? -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to l10n+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/l10n/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
