Re: [darktable-dev] Translations dropped in 3.6

2021-10-23 Thread Łukasz Karcz
Wiktor & all,

currently I'm working on Polish manual translation. Doing it practically
from scratch [no existing strings were transferred to weblate] so it takes
much time. I am NOT a person doing software translation itself; I have to
dig and find a suitable one, However, for keeping in sync with the online
manual I'm using 3.7.* snapshot compiled from source and Polish translation
works OOTB, of course with some strings missing. So insufficient coverage
is NOT the point. I guess.

Use 3.7.* instead if you can and the Polish version should work. Next week
I'll try to contact a person in charge of dt translation, maybe he'll be
able to help.

Cheers, ŁK.

The release doesn’t contain work in progress stuff so also just mostly complete 
translations.  Quality standards are set by the release team …
If you want to have a polish translation then translating darktable is a job 
that needs to be done by someone. If there’s no one doing this, then no 
translation will be available. You can tell your polish users complaining about 
missing translation that translating darktable isn’t rocket science. Simply 
have a look at https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/wiki/Translations and 
just start contributing… 
If no one is doing the job then this is an indication that there’s no need for 
a translation - thats how foss works :)

Asking... asking this won't make things happen!

Simple, do the work ! Step in, speak with the devs and start
maintaining the translation. The project is Open Source, all people are
doing the work on their free time. Is that hard to understand ?

We just need to people to keep darktable an high quality application.

And yes translations with too many missing strings are dropped. We feel
that it is making darktable feel as an unfinished applications.

And as we are are it, we need more Windows devs, we need for MacOS
devs. Those people are also asking for better support but we do not see
man power coming.

So, no need to ask, dt is Open Source, grad the source and help making
it better.

Cheers,

[darktable-dev] Translations dropped in 3.6

2021-10-23 Thread Wiktor Nowak
Hello.

It's common problem that new release is with or without certain
translation. In the past I believe I was able to "borrow" translation
file from previous release and use it with newer one. Currently I'm not
able to repeat the trick. Something has hanged or I'm missing how I did
that. I don't understand why translations are present in 3.5 and dropped
in 3.6
If it's because of insufficient coverage I think it's dumb. As an user I
would like to have access to 3500+ translated messages even if some new
ones are missing.

What can I do to use pl in the newest release? Polish users keeps asking
on my Youtube channel every few releases and I don't know what to tell
them actually.

Wiktor.
