Perhaps we should look into using translatewiki, OpenLayers is already using it: http://translatewiki.net http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Translating:OpenLayers/stats/trunk The software itself is just a MediaWiki extension: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Translate How it works is that you write a driver for it so that it can read-write your in/output, here's the driver for OpenLayers for example: http://svn.wikimedia.org/viewvc/mediawiki/trunk/extensions/Translate/ffs/OpenLayers.php?revision=51180&view=markup Then you run a job periodically which dumps the translations & imports them into your project. Bidirectional syncing is also possible but then you have to worry about merging. They're already working on a YAML driver. Once you're logged in you get a nice Launchpad-like interface for translations. *I* think it's more tedious than just editing the YAML in Emacs but then again it's not really targeting that demographic but armature translators who'll be more familiar with a web interface _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/dev
