This thread is about supporting Decathlon projects still hosted on Pootle. To make a start, I volunteered to do this for TuxPaint.
Thanks to Dawyne and Alaa for their comments. :) On 15/03/2010, at 8:41 PM, Alaa Abd El Fattah wrote: > On Mon, 15 Mar 2010 11:55:41 +0200 > Dwayne Bailey <[email protected]> wrote: >>> >>> Can we link to a project's repo, with auto-update of POTs and >>> manual commit of POs? >> >> We can, but its probably easier for now that we don't. Bummer. I thought we had that working earlier on? Well, I've talked to Bill Kendrick (TuxPaint), and he's happy with keeping TuxPaint on Pootle, and with me as liaison. I've already sent out a message to tuxpaint-i18n, encouraging TuxPaint translators to register with Pootle and have a look around. I have commit access to the TuxPaint repo (CVS @ Sourceforge). 1. What do I do with the current TuxPaint POTs? 2. How do I update the current TuxPaint files on server? 3. Will I be able to commit updated translations manually from Pootle (as I do on other Pootles)? I'd like to get current files on the server ASAP. >> >>> Also, do we have message functions yet? Can a project rep. contact >>> all the translators for a particular project?

We can get a list >> of emails, need to ask the other admins what they think. As I've said before, language admins need access to a list of current translators for that language. Otherwise, you don't know who's doing what! In the new, shiny Pootle, you can now see usernames and how many strings etc. they've done, but you don't know who they are, or how to get in contact with them. Better communication means better results. All this applies equally to a project admin. If I'm going to support the TuxPaint project on Pootle, as I've promised I will, then I need the tools to do the job. >> >>> As to the RSS feeds: >>> >>> http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/pootle/notifications?s[]=rss >>> >>> how does a project rep. access them? >> >> Whoops, seems we can do language level feed.

I'm getting a bit concerned, at this point, that by volunteering for this task I've promised the TuxPaint project and its translators support via Pootle which I can't yet provide. :S from Clytie Vietnamese Free Software Translation Team ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
