The idea of keeping the translation data files separately is simply to reduce the stuff for daily development work I believe. Languages are of course no addon and a very important part but we used en-SU as our reference language and start normally with it during the development. The translation come in later in the development cycle and requires the collaboration with our translators. And it much faster to build with out lang when do your daily work as developer. If translation issues have to fixed or if translation have to check then of course we build with lang. But for developers it should be configurable to simplify the daily work form my pov. > > Developers should always try their work with languages, actually I have the > opinion that we should always build with languages (or at least compile). I agree i general and lang tests should be part of the normal work but not at every time. If you work on bug fixes you are fine with an en-US version. We don't give en-US really a preference but we have to use one source reference language and that is en-US, not more and not less. For the release all supported supported languages are important and equal. > > Just to be sure, I will not move the lang directory to trunk now...it is > not part of this lazy con. decision.

I do not like languages as extras, that is the wrong signal to send, languages are an integrated part of aoo and not an addon. We have "extensions" and "swext" in main, they should go long before our languages.

Can you explain why you have chosen solenv? solenv is typically the home of our build env in the broader sense. We had reasons to extract the localization files and moved it in extras/l10n. One reason was to reduce the files needed for daily development without building localized builds.

[Lazy concensus] language merge into trunk.
Hi. Since we are now putting a lot of positive energy into 4.0, we have a lot of changes in trunk and at the same time I have made language changes in the l10n branch. This is a bad combination, that gives me quite some extra manual work. Furthermore I would like the 4.0 language files to be clean (whether we make them as po for sdf). If there are no objections I will merge the language changes (NO code changes) back into trunk. The changes in trunk will primarely be in .src files, where language different from en-US, as discussed in an earlier thread. This will not in any way affect the modules or the build system. All changes are committed in l10n branch. If no objections I will merge into trunk, monday april 8 using lazy consensus. rgds Jan I.
