Relying solely on translators doesn't scale. Would it be possible to add a mechanism to enable translation suggestion crowdsourcing ? The basic idea would be a button to "Translate this software description" below each untranslated description that would enable users to easily provide a translation suggestion to the DDTP using Launchpad. We could point the user to the DDTP translations in each individual software summary shown in Ubuntu App Center or Synaptic. There would be a button called "Translate those descriptions" http://nightmonkey.ubuntu.hu/#release=raring&language=fr&view=app&repo=REPOSITORY&isok=false&rownumber=100&sortpopcon=dsc&packagename=KEYWORD&page=null Two variables: keyword repository Mockup: - Software Centre: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-translations/+bug/376464/+attachment/3657387/+files/Logith%C3%A8que-Ubuntu_001.png - Synaptic: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-translations/+bug/376464/+attachment/3657359/+files/synaptic.jpg - Application Lens: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-translations/+bug/376464/+attachment/3650567/+files/mockup.png To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ddtp-ubuntu/+bug/376464/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
