Right now Damned Lies provides convenient ways to find the most successful translation teams, e. g.: - http://l10n.gnome.org/releases/gnome-extras or - http://l10n.gnome.org/module/evolution
I think DL is a very useful and usable translation tool. Sorting modules by name helps us finding them, and sorting teams by translation completion makes DL more usable for the people actually using it. But then, don't we love to see when our teams progress in that list? Maybe we should give developers _that_ kind of feedback! The module pages are already very good at showing developers how well are they doing with translators. And they are very rich: they provide quick information on how many teams translated the module, and how homogeneous is the translation status among team. What Damned Lies doesn't provide yet is information about how do modules compare to each other. That kind of information is less useful than that from the module page, but there are all kinds of people, and I'm sure many developers would care to see their modules among the top translated. We could sort the modules (inside a release set) using a translation index, which would be the sum of the percentual translations. E. g., 50% + 30% = 0,8; 10% + 20% + 30% + 40% = 1,0; 90% + 85% + 95% = 2,7; and so on. Of course, adjusting the index for quality would be great, but I doubt we can easily measure quality. So, do you think the idea is worth a formal feature request? -- Leonardo Fontenelle http://leonardof.org _______________________________________________ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
