Fwd: I can work on the it.po translation
by Giambattista Caltabiano 11 Mar '22

11 Mar '22

I have been learning how to use git these days. I think that I will be ok with it. I actually had a look at the it.po file. I have noticed that some entries have the #, fuzzy header. I imagine that they need to be corrected. If I correct them, should I remove the fuzzy line? Also, at the bottom there is a section where entries have #~ at the beginning. What are those?

Call for translations for Inkscape 1.1.2 (bug fix release, stable branch)
by Maren Hachmann 02 Feb '22

02 Feb '22

Hello Inkscape translators! This is the official call for translations for the upcoming Inkscape 1.1.2 , which is planned to be released in early February. 1.1.2 is expected to be the last in the 1.1.x series of Inkscape, and it is bugfix release, so the number of updated strings is small. If you'd like to contribute to 1.1.2 translations, please coordinate with everyone in your language's translation team, and get the latest po and pot files from https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/jobs/artifacts/1.1.x/download?job=tr… Further information is available from https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/Translation_information and https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/Interface_translation -------- If you are a translator for any of the languages below, please also check your 1.1.x branch po file for errors – either using the translation tool of your choice, or by compiling it to a mo file on your computer and reading the output – as they contain formatting errors and / or do not properly indicate the language they are for (default value is still set): as, az, doi, en_AU, en_CA, eo, es_MX, fa, hy, kok@latin, ks@aran, mk, ml, mni@beng, mni, mr, or, sat@deva, sat, sd@deva, sd, ur, ta --------- Inkscape 1.2 (currently still the same as the master branch) is approaching its alpha stage. Translations for 1.2 are already accepted, but it is expected that especially the newly added strings will still change until the release. –––––––––– Happy translating! Maren
