gnome-panel string change
Hi, For a while now, Ubuntu and Fedora have been using "System" instead of "Desktop" in the panel menu. It would be good if we could get that change integrated into gnome 2.16. I've talked with Vincent about it on IRC, and he seems okay with the idea. It's getting pretty late in the cycle though. What do you guys think? --Ray ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
Another gnome-panel string change
To fix http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=507553 one string was changed, so that it is more clear hopefully. Regards Gabor Kelemen ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
Tiny gnome-panel string change
Hi, I forgot to announce a string change I made a few hours ago in gnome-panel: "File not found" => "Icon not found" This string is just part of an error dialog displayed on the terminal. Nobody should never see it since it probably means gnome-icon-theme is not installed when we need it...

I don't know about other languages, but in Macedonian it would look pretty ugly since Desktop is translated into two words - "Работна површина" - try having that on your panel. :) -- Арангел Ангов <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n

For example in Ubuntu you have "Administration" in it and it's logical, you have all sorts of programs for administering not only your desktop environment but also your whole system (ex. adding users and printers, starting/stoping services etc.). Also, I'd like to think of GNOME as a system that enables you to do other sys administration related stuff. I vote for "System". -- Арангел Ангов Слободен софтвер Македонија http://www.slobodensoftver.org.mk [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n

[Disclaimer: I've never used Ubuntu and I have no idea how their menus
are structured, so we might be talking about different things.]
I guess the reason it was (and is) called "Desktop" is because the
operations under this menu are not relevant only to the system. It
makes great sense, since only one of the submenus is regarding system
interference: Administration ("Администрация на системата") --
everything else is connected with the user's settings and environment.

I completely agree, there are more and more admin tools being
developed that make the lives of (especially newbies) admins easier.
They should be all in this subsection, but it doesn't mean that the
whole menu has to be named after it.
Anyway, I don't want to argue about this since this is something
that's not essential; if it is decided to change "Desktop" to
"System", that's ok, although a bit strange.

I wouldn't say that GUI tools make live easier only for newbie admins, as far as I'm concerned I use everything that gets the work done. Anyhow, there are few more days left until string freeze, so If you're changing the string please let us know. -Arangel PS Yavor, try Ubuntu when you have the spare time. ;) -- Арангел Ангов Слободен софтвер Македонија http://www.slobodensoftver.org.mk [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
