Re: UIFE Request: Rename Print Settings to Printers
Hi :) Hannie, it used to be Printers and only just changed in this release. So, i suspect the translation-string for Printers is already there. I'm not quite sure how translations work but i think there is a list of choices for a string at some point? I don't know whether that list is tied to a location or a word so i dn't know if it would be more helpful to go back to the word that's always been used there (Printers) or to stick with the recent change to Print Settings. The old way is more consistent with other DEs and other Operating Systems.

Thanks, Jeremy Bicha Hi Jeremy, Although you have a point here, for translators and authors/editors of documentation it means extra work. Not only do we have to change the translation in GUI, but also in documentation (ubuntu-docs, ubuntu manual). Having said this, I would prefer Printers myself.

Please see http://pad.lv/1053189 for more details. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha I'm not sure it would be a good idea to change this in ubuntu. First of all it would mean extra work for translators and the documentation team quite late in this cycle. Furthermore, that string was changed upstream on request of one of the Dutch translators (it used to be 'printing', which without context got translated to 'busy printing', which looked very silly). Even if there is a UIFE for this, please do request an upstream change as well so translations can be shared between upstream and ubuntu.

Is Printers clear enough too? That's what already being using in gnome-control-center (as seen if you run GNOME Shell). I'll contact upstream as well. It is no extra work for docs. Since the name did change I'm proposing something different than 12.04, I have to update the docs regardless. I understand that it is extra work for translators but I hope it isn't too much. Either way, I'll follow the translators' decision and I won't be upset if my request isn't approved.
