Andrea, I'm afraid we are not being able to get the translation in
time to release the basque version in January. Miguel has told me
that he cannot work on the translation in the coming days an I am not
able to open neither the ".tar.bz2" file that he has sent to me nor
the one in the address you told me. I am trying to open them with the
Winzip program (working in the Windows 7 OS). If I manage to open
those files I´ll try to finish the work this week
The two tools you need are listed at
http://www.openoffice.org/l10n/how_to_join.html and are:
- 7-Zip to open the .tar.bz2 archive http://www.7-zip.org/
- PoEdit to open the individual PO files in it http://poedit.net/
Note: the archive contains about 280 files in many directories, but you
only need to work on those that have changed. You will need to open all
of them (and edit if needed) with POEdit; also read the "Tips for
Translators" at http://openoffice.apache.org/translate.html (especially,
do not translate the file basic/source/app.po since it contains obsolete
strings).
If you have any other problems, just ask. We can also convert the
.tar.bz2 file to a Zip file if you don't manage. And don't worry too
much about the deadline: if you don't manage to finish, we will still
reuse all your work for the next version.
Regards,
Andrea.
