> Honestly, I was under the impression that the project was dead... Software development needs time, have a look on Open HUB (https://www.openhub.net/p/scidb/estimated_cost), the development time is estimated to about 200 person-years, but in fact I've started eight years ago. It requires patience to develop an application like Scidb, and it requires patience to wait for the next release. Scidb is far beyond to be dead.
> I could do some testing Later, when the new version will be released. Unluckily my current development branch does not yet provide a running application. The requirement for a running application is a pre-tested version of the new database version, but implementation and testing is not yet finished. > I could also do some of the proofreading (although my native tongue is > Dutch) Please do it, not only my English knowledge has to be proofed, it's also an important test whether the documents are clear and helpful.. It is very useful if you post which documents are you proof-reading, so another tester may choose other documents for proof-reading. > ...and could actually translate to Dutch if necessary... The support of Dutch would be fine, please read the file "tcl/lang/README" for a first introduction how to build a translation file. You have to install the repository version: sudo apt-get svn svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/scidb/code/trunk scidb-code 'scidb-code' is the target directory for the sources. If you have any question, don't hesitate to ask. Don't be scared about the number of strings in the translation file, and about the number of help pages, urgency is not the case.
