Your timing was perfect. ;) Around the same time plus or minus a few hours launchpad and rosetta were finally open sourced. I'd also like to mention http://transifex.org which isn't tied to any distro[1] but can be deployed locally for a project. Afaiu it can be integrated directly with upstream VCS. fwiw I haven't looked at rosetta lately to see if it has improved since its early bad reputation messing up upstream translation. I hope so :) I'm sure both are good for translating gettext .po files. Hopefully at least one of them can deal nicely with the java style properties translations of swordweb and Bible Desktop.[2] Regards, Daniel [1] It has been developed by Fedora folks, and I think to help with GNOME but isn't tied to those. [2] or however it is that those work that isn't gettext based. _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
