Minutes of meeting, 2007-05-23


<SNIP>

Joe would like to know how i18n works in Turtle.Evgeny has an example here
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xdg/2007-May/008252.html. He points
out that the translation infrastructure (in Gnome) is already ready for .ini
and xml files.


Ok, I've been asking around the Gnome camp how we could support i18n of
Turtle files. As far as I can tell it is not gonna be trivial. We will have
to add the support to intltool, which only supports a hardcoded set of file
types... Given we write this patch we still need to convince the maintainers
of intltool to put it in which might be hard to convince them about, but I
don't know yet.


The complexity of implementing a Turtle parser in C is discussed. It seems
unclear what the requirements for such a parser would be in our case where
we don't need full Turtle. We haven't decided on a Turtle subset yet, so...


Ok, I've been familiarizing myself with Flex/Bison which is also used for
the Raptor Turtle parser and I'm not too scared to write one now. I think
the i18n might be the biggest issue for me now actually...

Cheers,
Mikkel
