Re: [Evolution-hackers] String change request for Evolution

2011-03-27 Thread Johannes Schmid
Hi!

 Finally, here's a first approval for hard code freeze break, assuming
 translators are happy with the string change.

Quoting Andre:
To clarify: We talk about the string
Fetch messages in one part, to work around broken servers like Domino

I don't expect many users (nor translators) to understand fetch
messages in one part (=so what does it actually change when I enable
this?), and that part somehow relates to IMAP's multipart.

So, I guess a better wording would be nice. Maybe it would just be
enough to say:

Enable work-around for broken Domino IMAP server

Regards,
Johannes

Hi,

Le lundi 21 mars 2011, à 00:10 +, David Woodhouse a écrit :
 I've diagnosed a bug in Lotus Domino IMAP server that we need to work
 around in Evolution's IMAP client:
 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645332
 
 The simple workaround is to disable multi-part fetches and just get the
 whole message in one go. That code path *is* tested, because we were
 doing it for small messages anyway. 
 
 Doing it for large messages means that the connection is blocked while
 the whole of the message is downloaded, so other, higher-priority user
 requests can't be handled — and it means that the progress indication
 doesn't work. That's why it was never an option before, but it *does*
 suffice to work around the server bug, so it does seem to be necessary.
 
 So I'd like permission to break the string freeze to add this option.
 
 If anyone has improved suggestions for the English strings to use, that
 would make me happy.
 
 I wanted to do a positive option for Fetch messages in multiple parts,
 to allow better responsiveness, which would default to TRUE. But when
 we upgrade Evolution, any new option will be assumed to be FALSE in any
 pre-existing account. So AFAICT it has to be a *negative* option, along
 the lines of Fetch messages in one part.

cc'ing gnome-i18n since the i18n team is the one approving string
changes.

I guess the configuration also appears in the UI; if yes, you should
notify the doc team too (gnome-doc-list), but that should be fine.

Finally, here's a first approval for hard code freeze break, assuming
translators are happy with the string change.
