OLPC: Call for translators
Posted by Sayamindu 8 months ago
The Pootle server running at dev.laptop.org is now up and running. If you are interested in helping translate the software going to be bundled with the laptops, please do jump in :-). More information is available in the mailing list post that I made.
If you have any questions - you can take a look at the FAQ and if you still have questions, feel free to join us on #olpc-pootle on Freenode, or ask on the mailing list.
Helping setup Pootle was an interesting project for us, since this is probably the first time a Pootle deployment is talking to a GIT repository, and adding support for GIT to Pootle (and adapting it for use in our scenario) was a bit of a battle. The results of the initial “beta tests” seem to be pretty satisfactory, and the next few days will hopefully tell us how well the entire system is working.

Have you pre-filled the po’s with content from Open-Tran.eu?
Who looks after the translation quality? I spotted some errors in the Dutch strings already after randomly clicking a few modules.
Are the po’s downloadable? Just a web UI is not going to cut it for experienced translators.

The translations and quality check are solely the responsibility of the language teams (it’s somewhat like the GNOME translation setup). The PO files are definitely downloadable - you can download them as CSV/Xliff/QT Ts files as well.
This is going to sound strange but here i go anyway, i was googling abt the RT2500 and got your ramblings, just wanted to know if you were intersted in disposing off your Raling RT2500 cause i need one ASAP for a project, let me know if you still have it and are willing
cheers
