Fwd: Introducing myself
by MiloType
@Moini, @bryceharrington
I am subscribed since Jan 12th. But …
I sent my introduction mail to the wrong address :-(
I simply copied the address from the first line … didn’t bother to read the on. Sorry, my mistake.
>>Welcome to the Inkscape-translator(a)lists.sourceforge.net <mailto:Inkscape-translator@lists.sourceforge.net> mailing list!
>>
>>To post to this list, send your message to:
>>
>> inkscape-translator(a)lists.sourceforge.net <mailto:inkscape-translator@...307...sts.sourceforge.net>
But on the other hand, it is confusing getting greetings from one email address, but having to respond to another ...

Website: Sponsors page updated
by Maren Hachmann
Hello Website Translators!
I hope you're all having a good weekend - here, the sun is shining and
the first flowers of spring are already in bloom!
For the inkscape.org website, Martin has updated the Sponsor page.
It now uses plugins for showing the current sponsors - this means that
when we get a new sponsor, you do no longer need to update the page,
because it will update automatically!
As Inkscape is aiming at more actively soliciting sponsors' support,
this might (hopefully) become a more frequent occurrance soon :)
(only drawback is that sponsor descriptions are no longer translatable)
You can find the new sponsors page for translation at
https://inkscape.org/<your language shortcut>/sponsors/?edit
Your translated version of the old sponsors page is still available via
https://inkscape.org/<your language shortcut>/sandbox/sponsors/?edit
Most texts didn't change a lot, so I suppose you will be able to reuse
some of them.
You need to fix up the urls with your language code because of
https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape-web/issues/346
(in short: moving CMS pages within the menu does not properly update the
saved urls...)
Thank you for your help & happy translating

Website: Several pages updated for new bug tracker
by Maren Hachmann
Hi Website translators,
due to the move of the bug tracker to gitlab, we've adjusted several web
pages to link to the correct places, and Patrick and Brynn worked
together on updating and improving the 'report bugs' page. Max fixed
some code sections.
Now it looks like there won't be any major changes coming in the near
future, so these updated pages can be translated:
https://inkscape.org/develop/bug-management/ - only the introductory
part changed
https://inkscape.org/develop/getting-started/ - mostly url changes, but
also some code and description changes in Linux and - I think - in
Windows and Mac parts
https://inkscape.org/contribute/translations/ - only url changes, as far
as I know, and only in the "Guidelines/workflow" paragraph
https://inkscape.org/contribute/report-bugs/ - only links changed
https://inkscape.org/learn/faq/ - instructions for installing add-ons
were updated
(https://inkscape.org/learn/faq/#how-install-new-extensions-palettes-docum...),
and there was an 'old' inserted into 'can be found by searching the old
Launchpad bugtracker' at the end of the dpi change section
(https://inkscape.org/learn/faq/#dpi_change).
The changes that were made were a bit difficult to track, unfortunately,
due to some broken website functionality, and due to them happening in
various iterations. I did take screenshots of most changes, though. They
are available as a zip file from
https://inkscape.org/gallery/item/13516/diff_screenshots.zip .
Hope you all have a good week!
Thank you for your help with Inkscape's website

Website: More News - Video about how to report bugs for Inkscape
by Maren Hachmann
Hi again,
we've got another news item about a new video that will help users to
find their way around in gitlab (replace language code part in link with
your own):
https://inkscape.org/<your-language-code-here>/admin/cmsplugin_news/news/933/tr/
Thank you!
---------
I have also been contacted by a potential Portuguese translator for the
website and by a translator for Urdu - if you recognize yourself in
this, please say hello!
---------
@Finlay: I'll try to do this one some day next week - don't hesitate to
beat me to it, if you have the time!
---------
Kind Regards
Maren
