Btw, could we use country/region flags to the l10n tasks? I don't see the point, since those tasks are not user-visible. While we're at it, Joey, do you think that we should keep them translatable? Currently, this is quite a load for translators because as soon as someone adds a language task, they have to update their translations. (Usually 2 fuzzy strings per new task) This, for something that is indeed not used...:-) Of course, if we have some future plans to allow displaying the l10n tasks optionnally in the future, we should keep them translatable. IIRC, there is a bug report about this, especially to allow selecting more than the only language tasks that are selected because of the instalaltion language. Do you think that you could, or someone else, have a look at this someday, and add a tasksel question (medium priority) to select additionnal l10n tasks? signature.asc Description: Digital signature

Doing so, in doubt) Please do. Not exactly, no. The most suited would be an icon with the lowercase ISO-639 2-letter code (en, fr, ptand the exceptions pt_BR, zh_CN zh_TW). Not very shiny but the only neutral thing, imho. Any other symbol will be very likely to be related to a culture and thus geographical considerations than related to a language. makes sense, IMHO. Btw, any hint on the size and format? Joey ? thanks, -- stratus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Joey, Could you give me a hint about the best image format to the 'icon' feature? Btw, could we use country/region flags to the l10n tasks? regards, -- stratus -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Quoting Gustavo Franco ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): Hi Joey, Could you give me a hint about the best image format to the 'icon' feature? Btw, could we use country/region flags to the l10n tasks? I would strongly discourage you to do so as this is very likely to drive sensitive problems (using French flag for French will drive the Swiss mad, using Taiwan flag for zh_TW will drive 1 billion people mad, etc, etc). l10n tasks are indeed hidden anyway signature.asc Description: Digital signature

It would be useless for readline frontend, but would be good for the gtk installer frontend, new gnome-tasksel (porting it to gtk+ 2 right now) and probably others in the future. The basic idea is add the field Icon for each task and ship the icons in a architecture all tasksel-icons package (or in tasksel-data?). I think that tasksel (readline and dialog frontends) can ignore the icons, but somebody else could work on the installer as i'm working in a new gnome-tasksel as cited above. Thoughts ? I'm willing to add them to tasksel-data (probably there) if someone contributes a complete and nice set for all visible tasks. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature

My gut-feeling says that tasksel-icon is a better name for graphics like icons. GSt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
