Prioritisation amidst deprecation

2009-08-23 Thread F Wolff
Hallo everybody

I'm trying to prioritise some work for the upcoming release, but I'm not
100% familiar with which modules will become deprecated and which will
be most worth while to translate.

Can anybody give some guidance about which modules might be close to
end-of-life, which ones won't be used much anymore, or any similar
issues that should affect translators like me who are not yet close to
supported status?

Thank you for any help.

Friedel

Deprecated modules are listes on the subpages of
http://live.gnome.org/TwoPointTwentyseven/ .

List of deprecated translatable modules that will be killed for GNOME
3.0 & are part of the official GNOME 2.28 module set:
  * libbonobo(ui): used by a variety of applications in 2.28
  * at-spi: used by several applications (Replacement: at-spi2)
  * libgnome: used by Evolution and Tomboy in 2.28
  * libgnomeui:  used by Evolution and gnome-panel in 2.28
  * libgnomecanvas: used by Evolution in 2.28
  * libgnomeprint(ui): not used anymore by any module in 2.28
  * gnome-vfs: not used anymore by any module in 2.28
(For your interest: Unused modules are still shipped in 2.28 as we
guarantee API platform stability for the GNOME 2.x series)

Furthermore,
  * gnome-mag will either get killed for 3.0 (if we can have a
magnifier in gnome-shell) or will be ported to a D-Bus API
  * gnome-speech might get killed for 3.0 in favor of
speed-dispatcher
  * gconf *might* get replaced by dconf for 3.0 or 3.2
  * gtkhtml *might* get replaced by WebKit for 3.2

Also I'd give Development tools a lower priority as most developers
speak english anyway.


I have added a "Choosing the last packages to translate" section to
http://live.gnome.org/TranslationProject/LocalisationGuide .
