Just thinking aloud: Is it possible to put the release notes on pootle?
Build a third project, "Apache OpenOffice 4.x release notes"? And the
release announcement?
In theory it is quite possible. I had a look and I put a proof of
concept, with the 3.4.1 files, in my temporary area.
Original English HTML file, identical to SVN:
http://people.apache.org/~pescetti/tmp/rn2po/rn-341.en.html
(it looks simpler since it doesn't get the site formatting, but it is
what we have in SVN for English).
Untranslated PO file obtained from it with
html2po rn-341.en.html > rn-341.po
http://people.apache.org/~pescetti/tmp/rn2po/rn-341.po
A partially translated Italian PO file (here I used POEdit, but Pootle
is fine too):
http://people.apache.org/~pescetti/tmp/rn2po/rn-341.it.po
Recreated HTML file in Italian with
po2html -t rn-341.en.html rn-341.it.po > rn-341.it.html
http://people.apache.org/~pescetti/tmp/rn2po/rn-341.it.html
(if put on the openoffice.org site, it would get the nice formatting
automatically, with no changes necessary)
Using Pootle would put some burden on the Pootle administrators. On the
other hand, not using Pootle and asking people to send HTML files is
error-prone and tedious too (since the HTML files have to be checked in
anyway). So, so long as we use HTML files, this seems feasible. If we
don't want to do additional work at all, we can of course ask people to
host translations on their blogs and merely provide links, but the other
way looks more "official".
Regards,
Andrea.
