The EWG is trying to figure out how to handle getting translations of new features in a better way and will be discussing this at our next meeting. > The best way to do this is probably to fork the relevant source code on > github ( https://github.com/osmlab/openstreetmap-website/ in the > welcome-2 branch), and then edit your local language translation file. If you are able to do a complete translation of the welcome_page section but aren't comfortable with git, github, and making pull requests against a specific branch, I'm sure someone can take your translation and do the request for you. > The English reference file is > https://github.com/osmlab/openstreetmap-website/blob/welcome- > 2/config/locales/en.yml > > The main section that needs translating is the "welcome_page:" section. An exact link is https://github.com/osmlab/openstreetmap-website/blob/welcome-2/config/locale s/en.yml#L1151-L1194 Also, it's been open for a month and sent out to the talk@ list for comment a couple of times, but the link to the github issue for general discussion about welcome page issues is https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/pull/338 _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
