For example in ggv (from GNOME 2.8): #: src/ggv-window.c:544 msgid "translator_credits" msgstr "" "Lucas 'Basurero' Vieites <basurero@...112...>, 2002-2003\n" "Sun G11n <gnome_int_l10n@...113...>, 2002\n" "Daniel M. Germán <dmg@...114...>, 2000\n" "Pablo Saratxaga <pablo@...115...>, 1999-2000" This will show a small list of the latest translators which can be recovered from the po file's header.

At one point in the release process, we'll declare a string freeze; that'll be the ideal point to really hammer down all the changes. However, it will still be worthwhile to do as many translation changes as possible earlier than that, to gain as much testing as possible. > So, do we know when Inkscape .45 release can be there?

I hope this gives you some idea for when to expect things will be done. Bryce

Portuguese pt-pt) translation
by Alexandre Martins 01 Jan '07

01 Jan '07

Hi! I'm a Linux user for some years and I think it's time to start contributing. Besides, I'm a teacher at a secondary art school (ages 15-18) in Oporto, Portugal were we've been spreading the usage of free and open source software (FOSS). One of the difficulties students mention is the English language used by most applications. To overcame this problem I've decided to start helping in translating some projects. Because my school teaches exclusively art courses, I thought Inkscape would be a good starting point. After some searches around portuguese translation communities I end up contacting the portuguese Ubuntu translation team. I think I could benefit from the Rosetta platform and the Ubuntu-pt team collaboration. My question: is it possible to translate Inkscape through Ubuntu's Rosetta platform and then submit the finished work to Inkscape's project? Kind regards, Alexandre Martins ps: is there someone in this mailing list working on the Portuguese version? -- Alexandre Martins ---------------------------------------------- ICT teacher Escola Secundária Artística de Soares dos Reis Arts Secondary School - Soares dos Reis Oporto, Portugal ---------------------------------------------- http://www.essr.net/
