Our translation process is described here: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Translation_information It doesn’t require using the VCS: you can download the file and send it to us (we prefer Launchpad bug reports). There’s also a plan of moving from Launchpad/Bazaar to a Git front-end. Should be realized in the coming year. Nonetheless I don’t agree with Alex; I’d support any work for trying to make our translation process funnier and more accessible, even if I don’t have any idea if it will really provide better results. Let’s try! If we use this platform then we could have a place to put screenshots of new strings for example. It’s currently hard to find where the strings are placed in the program… We could create the screenshots ourselves and that would be an opportunity to communicate among translators, as currently we don’t do it much because everybody has its own task. Moreover I’m noticing that we don’t provide any explanation for testing the translation (weird). I’m not sure many people here are actually testing the translation with the program. Well, I did, because I made many fixes to the previous translations and was eager to see my words. But sometimes we just want the work to be quickly finished… It’s later, once we’re using the new release, that we notice the wrong texts and correct them. Quality comes with time anyway. (I’m going to write how to test your PO file — :P.) So I’m favorable to this opening; might give motivation to the team and attract new contributors. Do you have opinions out there, @jazzynico, @Maren or any kind translators? -- Sylvain ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Command Line: Reinvented for Modern Developers Did the resurgence of CLI tooling catch you by surprise?
