Re: Access to GitLab
Hello Danial, only the language team coordinatior (in your case Arash Mousavi) can have git access, not other team members (not even committers). If the coordinator can't commit a new translation for some reason, you can post a link to it here and another team coordinator can commit it for you. (Then you can commit updates directly from damned lies). Regarding access to the issues, you don't need a GNOME git account for that. Just someone with the appropriate privileges to add you (someone listed as owner in https://gitlab.gnome.org/groups/Teams/Translation/-/group_members). I don't know how this works though (whether the approval of the language coordinator is required or not).

I'm not sure this is the best place to discuss this, should I open a bug about this? Still I agree with Andre: logging the user out is the best way for them to lose their work. If gnome-shell crashes, which is AFAICT the most common reason for this to appear, then I'd rather have the option to restart the shell without extensions (or maybe start the fallback mode) rather than losing my work.

This looks wrong to me, you're essentially not using ngettext plural

ngettext.

One of our translators also had the same problem with Contacts. Since this

This would be nice, but the new applications (e.g. Contacts, Boxes) don't
have any other name.

I don't know.

And this would be ugly for languages that don't use the latin alphabet, we
would need to either translate it or transliterate it.

Again problematic for non latin alphabet.

I wouldn't call that a while. Anyway, thanks for updating (or rather adding) the translation. Seriously, I don't quite see the usefulness of translating clutter at all: at ~570 strings, and it seems like all the strings for translation are GObject property names and descriptions, and I don't see why they would be translated. AFAICT, they would only appear in a debugger, so they are more or less as useful as schema strings, and shouldn't be in the reduced PO files. Agreed they aren't as easy to spot as schema strings, but are annoying nevertheless (and sometimes hard to translate). What do other translators think of this?

Using vertimus/damned lies for non-gnome translation
Hi all, I'm not sure this is the best place to post this, please direct me to the correct place if it isn't. After trying to attract new contributors for the gnome 3.2 and kde 4.8 releases, using damned lies for the former and plain email for the latter. It was way easier for us to track contributions on gnome, and we really liked the workflow interface on damned lies, and we'd like to be able to use the same workflow for kde (and perhaps other projects in the future). ISTR that the workflow management was based on vertimus, a tool that was used by the French translation team. Searching for that, I found this page https://launchpad.net/vertimus with a big warning that the software is unmaintained and has been merged into damned lies. That sounds nice, but not for my use case. I nevertheless tried to see if it is possible to use only the vertimus app rather than the full site and it seems to be impossible as it relies on many things from the rest of damned lies. So I tried to get the latest released standalone version (written in PHP) to try it on my machine. It seems to work OK (we may need to redo the theme to make it like the rest of the site), but I'd like to get opinions on using it. e.g. What version to use? What's the state of the code there? Were there improvements or bug fixes over the latest released version? (I couldn't clone the bzr repository). And of course any comments on the way other teams are doing for other projects are welcome.
