Hi guys, In preparation for the gEDA 1.6.1, I've been trying to sort out our translations. I've imported all translations from Launchpad, and have been reviewing places where untranslated strings were visible in gschem.
Unfortunately, we've got a lot of broken menu translations - due to incorrect strings in rcstrings.c. (Mostly my fault probably!) Mostly this was due to adding "_Accelerators" to the menu text, but not updating rcstrings.c This means that almost every language for 1.6.1 has translations which should be updated. I didn't simply "un-fuzzy" the old menu strings, as this would mean: 1) That translated menus don't have accelerators 2) The translators would probably never notice the bad strings. It might require some thought (and a native speaker) to work out a decent set of accelerators for each language. For the "es", "nl", "de" languages (en_GB is already fixed), can I ask the translators to fix this (if they have time) directly in git please? For now.. when checking translations into git, can you make them based upon, and committed to, the "stable-1.6" branch. (Contact me if you need help doing that). For those who've contributed translations on Launchpad, please update them there (stable-1.6 series). I'm keeping the templates synced at the moment. What I don't want is getting muddled between languages primarily translated directly in git, and those primarily translated in Launchpad. gEDA is now translated (at least partially) to: af ar bg de en_GB es fa fr he pt_BR hu it ja ml zh_CN nl pl pt ru zh_TW tr To all those people who's native language is not English - please help us by visiting: https://translations.launchpad.net/geda/stable-1.6/ And ensuring that gEDA 1.6.x gets fully translated into your language. (I don't promise when 1.6.1 will be released - hopefully soon - but we can always release a 1.6.2 with more translation updates!)
