Hello, I am very happy to announce that the beta-testing of the locale sites is over and you will soon have one of your own.
Before getting into technical details I would like to say a big big thanks to our beta testers, the translators from France, Japan, Indonesia and Turkey. They helped us fix lots of bugs and it was a pleasure, working with them, so again -- thank you. Now, right to the point, here is all the actions you need to do in order to start your locale wordpress.org site: 1. Choose a sub-domain, similar to your locale or language. 2. Give us your locale code (e.g. bg_BG) 3. Choose site administrators and tell us their WordPres.org Forums usernames. 5. Make sure your svn repository conforms to: http://codex.wordpress.org/Translating_WordPress#Repository_File_Structure Now the automated packaging system doesn't support encodings, other than utf-8. 6. Translate the theme-specific pot file: http://bg.wordpress.org/wp-content/languages/rosetta/rosetta.pot 7. Make a screenshot of the localized version, 246x145px. For inspiration, you can use those on http://wordpress.org/. 8. That's all :-) When you are ready, send all the information required above to me, off-list and I will take care of the set up. Also -- be patient, probably there will be a lot of requests, so your new sites won't be created immediately. Happy translating, and thank you for the participation, Nikolay. _______________________________________________ wp-polyglots mailing list [email protected] http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-polyglots
