Hey WebDevs,
Now that Maren has fixed the language selection issues we were having/
Both the redirect on missing pages and the error with news and search
page urls with new languages.
We have the opportunity to configure a short admin side list of
languages. This is more of a feature request/definition but it would
work like this:
A list of all languages, their english names and their translated
names (just in case they're missing from the core pot) a checkbox for
if we want them to be hidden from the menu. We can do this where we
want auto detection to pick a language, but not display every language
possible in the menu.
(or we could have a 'more languages...' link at the bottom)
The service would still need restarting to take advantage of the new
language, much in the same way as menu updates have to refresh the
cache.
Thoughts?
Martin,

Hi Martin,
why do we need more languages than we have translators? For the docs?
For cmsrosetta? Or do we have many visitors who don't understand the page?
Or for preventing further restarts, in case a translator for a new
language comes along?
We wouldn't have any translations... and no translators for them. Most
of them would be English fallback anyway...?
And would we be able to handle RTL languages?
Could you give us some cool use example for the additional languages?
Regards,
Maren

Hi Maren
It would come into it's own when we have a new translator who wants to
translate say arabic. We wouldn't have to edit the settings file in
the repository and forward patch it, it's a very risky way to enable a
new language.

Thank you, Martin, this makes sense now. (although Arabic (and Hebrew,
and some others) is maybe an example we should treat with care - they
write from right to left, and this could cause some layout problems...
but without a translator, there's probably little danger...)
Maybe we should take the languages Inkscape already supports as the set
to use?
(although I still fear this *could* become a maintenance nightmare with
outdated translations in languages only very few people would need -
restriction to some core isn't necessarily a bad thing... but of course,
we wouldn't push a volunteer away, who wants translate to some rare
language)
