Hi all.

Earlier this year there was some discussion about prioritising translation work, say, to target the localisation of Writer first.

I'm aware of the whatfirst wiki <http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/guide/project/ooo/whatfirst> at sourceforge.net but it still refers to v1.3. Is there a similar resource for 2.0? I think it was Dwayne Bailey said a while ago that "a tagged build" is what was required. OK, now I'm out of my depth -- I just translate -- but did anyone turn up with one? What happened next?!

Hi Tim

What you need to do to work out where strings come from is run podebug (http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/toolkit/podebug) on the set of PO files, that's what 'tagging' refers to, and then do a build using a GSI generated from those PO files. Then you can see when you run the application that each string has a little tag on it showing which module it comes from.

One other question: is there a working repository system (maybe Pootle?) that several people can easily be given write access to and that we can make use of? We've got a solid glossary and about 10% of Pavel's .po file bundle translated-but-needing-proofreading, but it'd make things easier if coordinating different people's work happened semi-automatically.

I started setting up a Pootle server on http://pootle.arsaperta.org/
Charles has been asking me on the status and I've been leaving his emails marked "Reply soon" .... needs some improvement to the administration of setting up CVS sources etc. But if you want to use it I can set it up for your language if you let me know where the files are. You just would have to manage committing to CVS etc yourself.

Cheers
David
