Subject: Translatewiki newsletter - Translation Rally time
To: [email protected]
Hello, dear translatewiki.net user.
This is the http://translatewiki.net e-mail newsletter for October 2010. We
use it to update you on our developments. Join our latest MediaWiki
Translation Rally now <http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Project:Rally-2010-10>!
The project's success depends on your continued efforts.
Contribute 500 MediaWiki translations and share in 1,000 Euro
In 2010 we are happy we can once more continue having a Translation Rally.
As before, it is sponsored by Stichting Open Progress<http://openprogress.org>,
with a grant from Vereniging Wikimedia
Nederland<http://nl.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mainpage>'s
"International Projects" fund. The October 2010 MediaWiki Translation
Rally<http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Project:Rally-2010-10>starts in a
few hours at 16 October 2010 00:00 UTC and will run until 23
October 2010 24:00 UTC. See the project page for details.
New skin, new features and new API modules
Finally after a long testing period we have switched the default skin from
Modern to Vector. Some users have been using it already, but the small and
annoying bugs have kept us from enabling it sooner. Together with the new
Resource Loader feature in MediaWiki, this brings a fresh look to
translatewiki and also offers speed optimizations. We also moved the "Next
message", "Previous message" and "Back to the message list" links from the
content area to the tab row.
The Translate extension that is used for all translation work done at
translatewiki.net, now has two API modules. The first module allows querying
basic information about message groups. The second module allows querying a
list of messages for a group in a language. It supports more different
filtering combinations that the regular user interface. You are encouraged
to play with these modules and to produce cool new things with it. Let us
know if you think we could allow easy access to other information, too. See
the API
documentation<http://translatewiki.net/w/api.php?action=help&querymodules=messagecollection%7Cmessagegroups>for
help on usage.
New product support
We are now developing a support
Mifos<http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Translating:Mifos>,
which is FLOSS used by micro finance institutions to help them scale up
their operations. Find out more at http://www.mifos.org/. A second message
group for Mifos is being added as we are sending this newsletter, and we
will be adding more messages once we get even more internationalisation
issues fixed in Mifos.
There have been many updates and additions for MediaWiki extensions, and
support for over 60 plugins for StatusNet was added.
Operational news
- We've fixed various minor bugs throughout the site.
- Apertium supports a new language pair: Macedonian to and from
Bulgarian.
- We conducted research about plural forms. Please help us to solve the
mess<http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Thread:Support/On_different_plural_systems>.
More detailed news can be found on our News
page<http://translatewiki.net/wiki/Project:News>.
