You might find that Pootle is not as shiny as Rosetta....but, definitely, if one wants to define a "completely functional translation system", Pootle and the whole Wordforge effort has way much more promises than Rosetta, indeed. And its main promise is that it is and will remain free software. Please consider to avoid basing free software l10n effort on non free tools. FYI, several people involved in Debian i18n effort *and* some representatives from the Wordforge project will meet on Sept 6-10 in Caceres, invited by the Junta de Extremadura and the Linex project, to discuss about our needs for an i18n framework for Debian..... We are very likely to draw the picture of a most promising framework...which will be able to "discuss" in the future with the i18n framework of localization teams like yours. Definitely, the collaboration between Wordforge and Debian will bump the development of Pootle. And this will be bumped with the real needs of l10n teams in mind (quality assurance, very versatile work methods, adaptability....) which is usually what most l10n teams have concerns with Rosetta (which is designed to be shiny...but not really efficient for team work). Pootle might soon implement communication protocols to allow Pootle servers to communicate (with open protocols of course) which will definitely be a killer feature for l10n efforts. Mark Shuttleworth gave promises that Ubuntu and Canonical might work to implement thse "some day" in Rosetta. But these are today only promises...just like the promise to make Rosetta free software "some day in the next 5 years" (as explicitely stated at the Debian Conference in Mexico). _______________________________________________ Trasno mailing list tra...@ceu.fi.udc.es http://ceu.fi.udc.es/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/trasno
