Hello everyone, for those of you who remember the Prague meeting I presented the platform "transifex" to handle our localization efforts. It has now turned out that apparently they are no longer "open source" and I got an email from Mandriva SA that they switched to a new localization platform.
The platform Mandriva SA uses ist called "weblate" and the reasons for the switch to this platform where as follows: Why replacing Transifex: - on a old server on MES 5, patched to run with python 2.5 - Transifex is no longer opensource and opensource repo is dead - very difficult to maintain - buggy, tracebacks server side etc... Why Weblate: - open source and active - tightly coupled with git repo => less management to pull/push translations (if new PO files are commited, new strings appears in Weblate, when some translations are done, translations are commited in the repo by weblate automagically) - quality checks on translations ! - nice web interface (the zen mode layout is not yet finished it will come) - written in django, not so many dependencies Would this be of help for us? Have a good day, Maik "tapwag" Wagner _______________________________________________ OM-Cooker mailing list [email protected] http://ml.openmandriva.org/listinfo.cgi/om-cooker-openmandriva.org
