Re: [Wengophone-devel] Announce: WengoPhone 2.1 rc2
Hi, I wanted to follow up the announcement with a couple of related announcements. First, while we have been unofficially in string freeze for several weeks, it's been a kind of a slushy freeze, and just last week the .ts files were updates with some new strings (due to strings which were not marked as translatable, but which appeared in the interface). As of now, the slushy freeze is a hard string freeze for the 2.1 branch. What a string freeze means is that there will be no changing of string IDs in the source code, no addition of translatable strings, and no removal of translatable strings. There will be no need, in other words, to update the .ts files in svn. If the freeze needs to be broken, a mail should be sent to the mailing list, with an explanation of why the string change/addition is necessary. The final word on thawing the string freeze will be made on a case by case basis. Second, a related announcement. Since we have had trouble working with Launchpad (problems importing the .ts files into Launchpad, problems reintegrating the resulting .po files, problems merging branches and so on), we've decided to go with the .ts files directly for the 2.1 release. To translate strings in a .ts file, there are two ways to go: 1. Edit the file by hand, and remove the status=unfinished metadata when you have finished translating a string, or 2. Use QT Linguist to translate the .ts file. I am eager to have translation leads for the various languages for which we have translations. For the moment, I will be contacting the translators who have worked on the WengoPhone in Launchpad, and I will manually import their translations. In particular, though, I'm interested in finding translators for German, Polish, Japanese, Swedish and Turkish - languages which were previously translated, but which now need an update. Once you have translated your .ts, please generate a patch (use svn diff my_translation.diff if you are working from Subversion) and attach it to a trac ticket (you can create one at http://dev.openwengo.com/trac/openwengo/trac.cgi/newticket if you are logged in to trac) where I'll make sure it gets committed. I will get the Launchpad translation chain up running ASAP - there are still one or two issues to iron out and document, but it seems to me (looking at the examples of Portugese, Brazilian Portugese, Bulgarian and Italian) that Launchpad is a great way for us to get a greater number of high quality translations. Cheers, Dave. Dave Neary wrote: Just two weeks since we made our RC 1 release, here is the WengoPhone 2.1rc2 from the Openwengo project.

Is there someone responsible for this I should speak with? I tried to lurk the mailing list archives but I didn't found anyone. Looking forward to hear from other Italian translators :) DAniele -- ___ Wengophone-devel mailing list Wengophone-devel@lists.openwengo.com http://dev.openwengo.com/mailman/listinfo/wengophone-devel

So it looks like they're the people to talk to.
