Last month I apply to Google Summer of Code with a project about
redesigning and rewriting Gtranslator in Vala. The project has
been accepted! Now I write you to ask for advice and ideas about
what you think this new application should have or don't have.

Hi, I don't think that many of our translators are using GTranslator, so I can't give you a proposed list of improvements over what GTranslator already offers.

it seems you have some interesting ideas. I would maybe add the possibility for heuristic checks like Pootle has (i.e., checking that XML snippets are well-formed, so that there is a matching closing tag for open tags; or checking that a string containing the number "12345" contains it even when translated; or checking that a 2-words string is not translated with a 100-words string).

When you have something to look at, feel free to post here again, and maybe some of our translators will want to give your tool a try.

Regards,
  Andrea.
