Public bug reported: Hi,
while translating unity-lens-applications, there is a string that in may different language is hard to translate correctly (and can lead up to long discussions). The string is: "Free". The difficulty here is understanding if the string means "free as in speech" or "free as in beer". A translator comment just before the string would me much appreciated in this cases. The Ubuntu Software Center uses something like this to clear the meaning: TRANSLATORS: Free here means Gratis TRANSLATORS: Free here means Libre The string is located in src/daemon.vala. ** Affects: ubuntu-translations Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: unity-lens-applications Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: ubuntu-translations Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Translations Coordinators, which is subscribed to Ubuntu Translations.
