Hello, Please add the NSIS installer translation for Romanian from here: http://www.secarica.ro/traduceri/inkscape_0.47_installer_romanian.zip and also add the corresponding line to the main NSIS script, which should be !include Romanian.nsh Additionally, the default template for Romanian can be added too: http://www.secarica.ro/inkscape_0.47_default_template_romanian.zip which is modified as per Inkscape wiki for translators instructions. Regarding the template modification, my question is -- what changes from the practical perspective ? I mean, where can I observe any change when using Inkscape ? >From my language point of view the changes are minimal, like the page is now specified in millimeter and the label "Layer 1" is translated. What property in the Inkscape UI display this ? Thank you, Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro/

product name variable in nsis installer language file
by Cristian Secară 13 Jan '10

In the NSIS lnaguage files most strings are using the ${PRODUCT_NAME} variable for the installed product name, except for three places where "Inkscape" is mentioned explicitly (line 32, 41 and 44 if speaking about english.nsh file). Is this an intended behaviour, or is a mistake ? The other translations should follow exactly the same syntax regarding the "Inkscape" name occurrence ? Thank you, Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro/

update for Romanian translation
by Cristian Secară 12 Jan '10

Hello, Please update the Romanian translation with this one here http://www.secarica.ro/traduceri/inkscape_0.47_lang_ro.zip This is merely a spelling, terminology and bugfix revision. I have the explicit consent of the previous translator, PaulS. Short changelog: - changed all Romanian legacy ş and ţ characters with the correct ș and ț characters (possible only in recent years, due to UI font glyphs completion in major Linux distros) - reverted the RGB and CMYK acronyms to the English / international convention - just a few terminology unification with GIMP (in fact, there were some more in the other sense, i.e. Inkscape -> GIMP) - just a few terminology bugfixes - just two percents in translation advance Right now I do not intend to maintain the inkscape Romanian translation, mainly because I am the maintainer of the one for GIMP and there is still a lot to do there. However, from time to time, if there will be no significant progress here, I will probably do some further steps in advancing with the Inkscape Romanian translation. Note for potential translators: feel free to join, discuss and ask any question on the list for people interested in Romanian localization of free software, located at http://groups.google.com/group/diacritice The Romanian Inkscape translation is also available in a collaborative form at http://tradu.softwareliber.ro site; although that place is useful for those wanting to contribute only on occasions, as far as I know the online tool (still) has a few limitations, like the fact that the user comments are not displayed and/or are wipped out from an existing .po file. (I myself have translated the .po file offline, with Poedit) Thank you, Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro/
