Hi all, and Simos thanks for the forwarded email; didn't receive it since I was only subscribed on the translate-devel list. First of all, I think the work you guys are doing on Wordforge is great and valuable for the community. Pootle and the Toolkit have proved useful in the past for teams in which I was a member. > On Sat, 2007-04-14 at 00:10 -0300, Leonardo Fontenelle wrote: >> I couldn't understand if this project was approved or not. >> >> Anyway, maybe they could focus on improving Pootle on what they may >> need.

[1]: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SummerOfCode/2007/DimitrisGlezos Basically, the project has two objectives: 1. Deploy an interface providing translation statistics for Fedora 2. Provide a tool that enables seamless commits to upstream projects Of course these are not rigid and we can adapt them etc, but they are our primary concern. No plans for online/web translations in the project's scope but I'd be happy for suggestions for future work! The first one is a simple concept, found in many projects; I particularly like GNOME's Damned Lies approach. I imagine the second as a tool (Web UI with a command-line tool) that handles *remotely-SCM-hosted* PO files for people who have access to Fedora l10n. The (remote) project manager creates one SCM account for the whole fedora-l10n community which the tool uses to checkin/out files for translators, regardless of the SCM. Could these two could fit in Wordforge's vision for version control [2]? If yes, where and how?
