Hello, It would be nice to have a standard way to mention copyright holders in PO files. Currently, the copyright holders are mentioned (manually?) in the comments of the header, for example using the template generated by xgettext:
# SOME DESCRIPTIVE TITLE. # Copyright (C) YEAR THE PACKAGE'S COPYRIGHT HOLDER # This file is distributed under the same license as the PACKAGE package. # FIRST AUTHOR <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, YEAR. It would be nice if copyright owners could be added to that list by PO editors. Some people do that manually, but that could be quite dangerous to do it automatically with by tools since the comments of PO headers are usually hand edited and contain other data. I wonder if the copyright holders could not be specified in some header fields. PO editors could update automatically the list of copyright holders and dates. I'm thinking about something like: "Last-Translator: FULL NAME <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n" "Language-Team: LANGUAGE <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n" "Translator[0]: FULL NAME <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, YEAR\n" "Translator[1]: FULL NAME <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, YEAR, YEAR\n" "Translator[2]: FULL NAME <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, YEAR, YEAR-YEAR\n" What do you think? -- Nekral -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
