Hallo Stéphane, and welcome to the Pootle community. Thank you for the detail in your post - it makes it much easier to start answering :-) More comments inline... > > My environment is : > > * Ubuntu 8.10 > * Pootle 1.1.0-1 installed through the repository with all its > dependencies + python-levenshtein package > * Apache 2 configured with mod_proxy > > * Our project to translate : > o Is PHP based on Zend Framework > o All the po and mo files are under a subdirectory of the main > directory trunk/site/i18n/ > o po and mo files are under subdirectories in trunk/site/i18n/ > to match extensions packages names > > The structure looks like this : > > * trunk/site/i18n/ > o admin > + fr.po > + en.po > o extension1 > + fr.po > + en.po > o ... This is a gnu layout, with submudules are resident inside the project.

By default it contains some 50 odd languages, and you can easily add more by uncommenting some of those there or adding some yourself. The admin interface can also be used. To remove languages, just remove their entries from pootle.prefs and restart the server. I guess you might talk about adding new language files initialised from templates, so I'll address that below. > how po files update, if there should be a > template pot file and if so how it should interact with the others and > so on.

In the project administration page, you can choose which new languages to add. It will create the empty files based on these POT files. If you prefer, you can also safely do it from the commandline with pot2po, msginit or whatever you prefer. > I tried many other setup like treestyle="gnu" but it never end to work. > > Could you help me to better understand the process of creating a project > under Pootle, especially in my environment ? One outstanding issue for your environment, might be how to commit the new files to SVN. You need to do "svn add" on the command line for files that you want Pootle to be able to manage. Users will then be able to commit from the web interface if they have the appropriate rights. > > Best regards, > > Stephane Roucheray Feel free to help us extend the documentation on the wiki to make it easier for those coming after you. The prefs file will mostly disappear in the next release of Pootle, and the web based administration will become much easier. Hopefully that already simplifies things for several admins.
