I would strongly encourage any localizer working on the Gnash PO file to use Virtaal and work on a downloaded PO file because (for reasons I don't pretend to understand), it seems that a great many obscure debugging strings are already present in Virtaal's translation memory (at least for Spanish, but I would assume for other langs as well), allowing many strings to be completed with just a few mouse clicks and some careful attention to detail as some are close, but not exact, matches. Virtaal (from the fine folks who maintain the Translate Toolkit and Pootle) http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/virtaal/index I'm making good progress on completing the Spanish L10n of Gnash in this manner and have seen that someone has started work on Arabic. When a PO is complete on our Pootle server, we'll file it upstream via your usual processes. http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Translation_Team/Upstream_localization#Gnash > > > > There is one string that is somewhat inconsistent with the pattern of > > the others and may be an i18n error. > > > libcore/asobj/Date_as.cpp:1167 > > Date.setMilliseconds was called with more than one argument > > > > does not have an embedded %s variable.

I will keep an eye on the upstream POT file and refresh our template (and projects) when this bug has been corrected. Benjamin, if I could please trouble you to file that bug for me, I'm having trouble logging on to Savannah (too many accounts on to many repos), Warmest Regards, cjl volunteer Sugar Labs / OLPC / eToys Pootle admin
