Hi. I would like to spend some time on the german translation of Blender. But the wiki page is a bit of a problem for me ;-( Maybe a very brief step by step instruction could help more ? Here is what i do so far hoping i am doing right (maybe someone can confirm that i work as i should ...):
Prerequisites: - I downloaded Blender from http://www.graphicall.org/582 - I downloaded the language branch from https://blender-translation.googlecode.com/svn/branches/ - I installed the windows version of poedit from http://sourceforge.net/projects/poedit/ Make the editing easier: - I copied blender-translation\DE\de.po to garlic32\2.59\datafiles\locale\de\LC_MESSAGES\blender.po Now poedit compiles the .mo right in place for Blender Note: I have to frequently restart Blender. Changing the .mo while blender is running seems to have evil consequences... ======== And now sme questions: 1.) When i am in doubt how to make a pyrticular translation, who can i ask ? 2.) When i have finished a part, what is the best way to give it back ? 2b.) Where do i get access permisisons to the repository ? 3.) When others also do changes on the same PO file, i probably have to update frequently (svn update ... ) ? 4.) I do not exactly understand the comments about merging from other branches... When exactly do i have to do that ? 5.) When i see an already translated line of text which seems wrong to me, how shall i proceed ? 6.) Do i have to create a comment for every change i do ? thanks for any answer on this -gaia- _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
