You don't have to finish the translation before you can upload the po, however, uploading it frequently causes a little more work for us. Users only get the new translation when there is a new release of Pidgin, so you don't gain very much by uploading early. We generally make an announcement on this mailing list a few days before we release a new version. During those days we hope that translators will update their .po file to account for any new strings, and submit the new file to us using trac: http://developer.pidgin.im/simpleticket > Also, how can I test the translation file? I don't know where to put > the .po file. I think you need to convert the .po file to a .mo file, and then install it to $PREFIX/share/$LANG/LC_MESSAGES/pidgin.mo. I don't know how to do that off the top of my head, but I think I might look it up. If I figure it out before someone else responds I'll let you know. -Mark _______________________________________________ Translators mailing list [email protected] http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/translators
