Hi everyone, Ryan has published the article about our hacker's meeting in Boston! It's available on the website from here: https://inkscape.org/en/news/2018/05/22/2018-boston-inkscape-hackfest/ Maybe this would be a great thing to start with for our most recent members? Let me know what you think, Jiajun and Artur! Finlay, would you have time to help with the German translation? I'm a bit busy at the moment and could use your help. Thank you, and happy translating, Maren

Arabic months
by Abdelhak Sidi Ali Mebarek 04 Jul '18

04 Jul '18

Hi, After a (very) long time, i will try to contribute, this time hopefully more efficiently. I was looking at the Arabic po file of Inkscape, and found months names i didn't understood. A little googling helped me understand that these were Mesopotamia names, and that the most used ones were those used in Egypt and Sudan (these are very close to Maghreb countries too). I want to make the switch, but i thought that sending this email before was important, maybe the use of Mesopotamia names was on purpose.

Self introduction "Artur"
by Artur Wróblewski 13 Jun '18

13 Jun '18

Hi all, I am a Artur. I would like to translate the Inkscape software interface and Inkscape Web page to Polish . Who am I? I am an engineer working every day in a company producing heavy vehicles. I have10 years of experience in design (in software: SolidWorks,DraftSight,AutoCAD). As a freelancer, I do: 3D modeling (Blender,3Ds Max), Creating textures (Gimp,Substance Designer,Substance Painter ), Create game assets(Unity3d, CryEngine) Create script for Unity3d, CryEngine (Java, C++, C#). I like to do: hand drawing (pencil,eraser,fine line pen), digital painting (Krita, Corel Painter), create vector drawings (Inkscape). I spent the last 3 or 4 years for my family and did not do much with additional jobs. Children have grown a bit so I can go back to what I like. I do not have too much time yet but I hope that she will be able to do a full translation of the website and software in a year or two. I still do not understand the mechanisms of this website :) and translations. My first translation does not work exactly as I would like. But with questions, I will wait until I read the entire Wiki page for translators. If anyone has questions for me, ask me a lot. Regards, Artur Wróblewski

Fwd: Self introduction "Artur"
by Artur Wróblewski 20 May '18

Yes exactly , the first page was the problem. I can see that the rest of the pages are partially translated. Is it possible to take a local copy of the inkscape Website to test its modification? (for example Linux+apache+sql+wordpress) Where can I find a tutorial on how to set an inkscape page on my own server? I do not even know what CMS is used on the site. So far I have used mainly for wordpress. Just out of curiosity, what type of translation software do you use? I'm asking about personal preferences (each of you). Not what is available on the market. Do you use any dictionaries? is it integrated with your software. Do you prefer to manually translate the word by word. I do not know how to translate the content in CMS yet. :) Regards, Artur Wróblewski 2018-05-15 0:49 GMT+02:00 Maren Hachmann <maren@...325...>: > Hi Artur, > > and welcome :) > > Thank you for introducing yourself, you seem like an avid graphics > experimenter! > > Having a technical background will make translations easier for you (not > because of the terminology, but because of the tools). > > What is it that doesn't work with your first translation?

Page combination
by Martin Owens 30 Mar '18

30 Mar '18

Dear translators, I've combined the pages 'Branding' and 'Trademark' into one page: https://inkscape.org/en/about/branding/ I've used the branding page and pasted the trademark policy at the end of the page. I then set the original trademark page to redirect. This has been done because user testing here at the hackfest indicated a confusion between the two topics and similar content. The CMS is currently very heavily cached, so if you edit your pages you will notice that the menu will quite often not reflect your changes. This is expected. The website should also be operating a lot faster with more memory and cpu from the provider. Although I experienced errors using the cms cut+paste functionality so I used my desktop clipboard to move content instead. Best Regards, Martin Owens
