As a compromise between doing individual comments and doing them all, I suggest some process for nominating files. As part of an effort to turn myself into an AOO code expert, I am trying to read certain files.

One possibility is to create a Bugzilla entry "Source code contains comments in German". Those who are able and willing to translate would put themselves on the mailing list for that bug. People like me who could add a comment listing files whose comments we would like translated.

I can also help with this. I had no issues in understanding most of them. :)
Maybe we should make a list with files that contain German comments?
Then we can work through them and add a English translation.
I thought that they are so many that no one bothered anymore.

All the best.

Wouldn't it be better to translate the comments step by step and put
them back in the source code (while preserving the original comment)?

when the translation is good then there is no reason to keep it. I think
Mechtilde has the knowledge to know what the comments mean.

But it would be also OK to post them here. We translate it and Patricia
can put the English comments back to the code. Whatever works best.

I trying to read some AOO source code. There are few comments, and
several of the ones I have found are in German, which I don't know. I
have tried running some through Google Translate, but the results do
not
make much sense.

Is there a translation tool that works better on source code comments?

If not, would it be OK to post some here and request translations from
humans who know both German and English?
