Hi all,

we would like to set up an i18n team for X2go.

The task of this team will be the maintenance of translation files in all X2go projects that utilize translation mechanism. Do I need to be able to read and write code for this? Definitely, no! Become a member of a translation team is a possibility to be in close contact to the developer team without necessarily being able to code. Only pre-requisite: you use X2go quite regularly and no the functionalities of the X2go components... plus: your English is good enough to find good translations of menu items, dialog boxes, etc.

Each translator is responsible for the translation files of his/her language. Of course, it is also possible to maintain one translation language as a sub-team (that is: one language is maintained by more than one person).

Currently these applications are using translation features:

  x2goclient
  pyhoca-gui
  x2gognomebindings
  plasma-widget-x2go (KDE$ binding)
  x2godesktopsharing
  x2goadmincenter
  ... (possibly more to come) ...

The idea is to have a dedicated mailing list for announcing x2go-i18n issues (mostly mails like: ,,i18n Team, please translate this-and-that'' and a permanent team (with fluctuations, if needed, but preferably not so much fluctuation among the team members) that feels responsible and dedicated to providing a multi-lingual X2go environment to the world.

The tools that we use for translations are currently versatile. Depending on the team we will find ways to standardize the translation technologies (if the team members are flexible with using different i18n tools, then this may not be needed).

So, if you are interested in contributing translations to X2go and join the development realm by this approach, please-please-please subscribe to

and ping us developers on that list.

Thanks in advance for your time!!!
Mike (and Heinz)
