Re: [l10n-dev] Pootle and terminology
Hi Alexandro, for Russian Italian and Khmer we are referring to the Pootle server hosted on the Sun virtuallab. Please see details at: http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/New_Translation_Process_%28Pootle_server%29 The 3 above languages are the only one which will be using Pootle to translate the 2.3 version since we are in the initial/pilot phase. If everything goes well or at least we sort our the issues and we are able to fix them, all other languages and team that want to be added to this tool are more than welcome to join. That would be for the 2.4 release. Rafaella Alexandro Colorado wrote: On Mon, 11 Jun 2007 07:46:47 -0500, Charles-H.

One is hosted on Wordforge servers (pootle.wordforge.org) another one by my company's community portal (pootle.arsaperta.org) and there are several of them scattered here and there. But Sun could host one central Pootle server on the OOo's infrastructure. They are running tests at the moment, and if they prove to be compelling enough then we'll all migrate to the new server.

Re: [l10n-dev] Pootle and terminology
Well, it seems that Alessandro was successful in importing the SunGloss StarOffice terminology into the Pootle terminology project. BTW: I have reported these precedure in the Q&A session od the Translaiton 2.3 wiki http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Translation_for_2.3#Q_.26_A and I really would encourage every Native -Language team to ask their questions in this list so that we can all benefit from inforamtion exchanges.

A text-box is displayed beside the text to be translated with suggestion for specific words. Does that work also for whole sentences? I have the feeling it only displays single words. Is there anything else I can do with the terminology project (maybe automatic translation?). Apart from Pootle, we'll be using poEdit to translate the OLH. I assume the same file I created from the glossary can be used in poEdit as a reference, maybe as a PO Compendium. Does any of you know how it works? Should I import it into the TM database?

You need to make a _comma_ separated file. This is the format that the converter is expecting. Does OOo Calc give the option of choosing the delimiter style? Perhaps it is using the tabs because the initial file had them. Then you might need to open the file in a text editor and replace the tabs with commas. Take note of the expected file format that csv2po expects (three columns with source and target in the second and third columns respectively). It might be easiest to ensure that your file has this format, otherwise you will have to specify the format using the --columnorder parameter.

Re: [l10n-dev] Pootle and terminology
Ciao Alessandro! sorry for the mix up ;) yes, the syntax of PO files is very simple. And WordForge project has created Translate Toolkit that enables converting to GNU Gettext PO files from great many formats. This is how a simple terminology PO file entry can look like: #. "Any piece of information (text, graphics, executable) put together and given a name. All the information you have on the hard drive is arranged as a collection of files." msgid "File" msgstr "Lima" The text after # sign is merely an explanation and is not needed by Pootle. The important lines are: msgid, followed by the original word in double quotes, and msgstr, followed by translation in double quotes. So it should be fairly easy to convert any text-based list to PO.

Re: [l10n-dev] Pootle and terminology
Hi Alessandro, the terminology feature of Pootle is very handy when translating online. You should prepare the Spanish translation to the list of popular OOo terms and upload it as a PO file. Each string may consist either word or phrase, though one-word translations are suggested by the tool more frequently. You may take a look at Kurdish NL's l10n project located on Pootle running at arsaperta.org server. The glossary consists of about 900 terms and translations and the words are automatically suggested during translation. May I ask which pootle server you are running? Is it you own or shared with other projects (like WordForge Pootle server)? Feel free to ask should you require any assistance in importing the glossary, or finding the list glossary compilations of terms commonly used in OpenOffice.org Best regards, Aiet Kolkhi Georgian NL - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[l10n-dev] Pootle and terminology
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I seem to understand that the terminology project in Pootle can be used as a reference during the translation and also to automatically translate the other projects. Is that correct? What type of files can I upload to the terminology project in order to use them as reference? Previously translated PO files? If so, why can't the files in the other projects be used as reference? At the moment I have three projects on the Pootle server I'm working on: - - OLH; - - UI; - - Terminology. The first two are mostly translated and therefore certainly contain strings which could be reused during the translation of the remaining files. Is there any way to reuse that content?
