Hello all

We have started the Debian Description Translation Server. 

We start the translating of all package description and the server
support now four languages (de, fr, it and pt_BR).

The server started 9 weeks ago with german and the other languages started
1-2 Weeks ago. The German translation group has now translated 20% of
all Package descriptions from sid/main/binary-i386. The other
languages are at the beginning and need more help. 

How can you help?
-----------------

You can translate some descriptions. Send a mail to
        grisu-td-<langposfix>@auric.debian.org
with the subject
        GET 1 <langpostfix> 
(substitute '<langpostfix>' with de, fr, it or pt_BR)

The server will send you a guide with more information and one
untranslated description. Read the guide, translate the description
and send it back.

How can I start a new language?
-------------------------------

Now the server support only this four languages. If you will start a
new languages, ask [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How can we use this translations?
---------------------------------

We have set up  aptable translated Packages files. Add to
source.lists:
deb http://gluck.debian.org/~grisu/description_translation/aptable 
<langpostfix>/woody main
(or sid or potato ...)

Now we have only i386 Packages files. On request I can translate more
Packages files.

Is more help needed?
--------------------

Yes.

We need help to:
 - move the translated Packages files to ftp-master and the mirrors
 - patch APT (with a option, that download Package-<langpostfix>
   files?)
 - maybe add real multilanguages support to APT and co.


Gruss
Grisu

        Por una vez, y gracias al Proyecto La Espiral, parece que vamos
        un pelin por delate }:-)

        Las descripciones cortas de 5189 paquetes ya est�n traducidas al
        castellano, y de las descripciones largas, ya vamos por 5189 
        paquetes traducidos (88.6 %) de un total de 5851 paquetes.

        Un aplauso a la gente que colabora con La Espiral y �nimos a los
        germanos estos, para que nos alcancen pronto }:-)

        Que alguien le de un toque a este shaval y le diga que los
        hispanohablantes ya tenemos el tema pasado por la piedra }:-)

        Nos leemos ;)
