Such a CVS would be most welcome at least for our group. Translators need to keep their translations fresh, so that they could work more freely without getting too worried about multiple work on same files, or some other version mess. My question would be, how would the CVS archive be administered? Ideally, most translators should have write access, or at least the leaders of the translation groups. Getting the CVS write access is currently a rather complex process. Actually, all native-lang groups already have their own website and access to its CVS, so they can already put their po's there. Right? I haven't thought of that before... Well, a centralised solution could have the possibility of merging the translations into sources automatically from the pos. And also updates in the templates could be merged into the pos automatically. Perhaps we should look at some major existing projects, such as KDE or Gnome, which have used CVS for po translations for years. Well, KDE is actually moving to Subversion right now. -- Marko Gr�nroos, [EMAIL PROTECTED] (http://www.iki.fi/magi/) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
