Hi Dirk, yes I know you prefer SVN, but SVN does not fit my needs. That's the reason why the plugin is on github.
I read the readme file, but it's not very verbose. > Actually we prefer the usage of our SVN infrastructure. That's why we don't > document it more than necessary. So you don't want any other users to translate JOSM or it's plugins?? I think how to translate should not be related on where it is hosted. If it's easy to translate maybe more people would help to translate. I found out how to generate the required files, but how do I edit them? I want my plugin to be as easy to use as possible and that includes localization. Shouldn't there be a guide for a plugin developer to translate their on plugin? ------------ Mit freundlichen Grüßen Dipl.-Ing.

Read the readme in the i18n directory of the JOSM part of OSM repository (i.e. where the plugins are). You need the included perl script to generate lang files. > A step by step guide would be great in the wiki. Actually we prefer the usage of our SVN infrastructure. That's why we don't document it more than necessary.
