Hi Pootle People, I received this email from João and said that I would post it here for further discussion. Please add your 10c about this idea and please keep the CC.
-------- Forwarded Message -------- From: João Miguel Neves <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Dwayne Bailey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Pootle - gettext-lint tools project Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2008 13:18:59 +0100 Good afternoon, There's a company in Portugal (Sapo - part of the local telco) sponsoring a program like Google's Summer of Code. I'm proposing a project of a web interface for gettext-lint tools (what I use for automated QA of the Firefox L10n pt-PT). This interface would allow a user to upload gettext files and get several classes of error reports: * Lack of punctuation, shortcuts, variables and other signs. * Inconsistencies in translations. * Spelling errors. * Disrespect of a pre-defined glossary. Two use cases of the project would be pootle integration: 1) The report would have a direct link to the translation in each error so it would be easy to do the correction. 2) A pootle server would have a configuration for this web interface, and a user could just push a button and would get redirected to the web interface with a report on the translation. The project will be done as part of the gettext-lint tools, Mozilla-PT group and Ubuntu's pt-PT LocoTeam. Do you think you could give me a contact of a Pootle developer that might be interested in this project and could answer some questions regarding pootle to the student?
