Website/Wiki/News outlets: Updates for 0.92.2 (not released yet!)
by Maren Hachmann 12 Aug '17

12 Aug '17

Dear Translators, for the pending release of Inkscape 0.92.2, there are already a couple of texts available for us to work on: Website -------- On the website, the news article can already be translated at: https://inkscape.org/en/news/unpublished/833/ (when the article is published, you can also access it from the inkscape.org front page). Clicking on Save will not publish the translation, when the original isn't published yet. When the English version is then published, any existing translations will be published, too. Website CMS pages will probably also require adaptation, unless the releases app is ready for the release (I'm not sure here, but currently it looks more like we'll need to work on the CMS pages, just like last time). Wiki ---- And we've also got some release notes for 0.92.2 in the Wiki: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Release_notes/0.92.2 Translating these is some work, but it's also very interesting, if you want to know more details about all the progress that has been made (and why you should update to 0.92.2 when it's out!) Please send a message to this mailing list or to me directly if you would like to get access to the Wiki or to the Website News, to help with the tasks. News spreading -------------- If you can help with spreading the news in your language, please visit: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape-vectors/press/issues/1 to see if there are already news outlets on the list for your language, and add a comment, to claim one or more of the to-do items. If you know of one that is missing in the list, please comment on the issue, give a link and a way how to contact the corresponding outlet. IMPORTANT: Please do NOT post or publish any news anywhere just yet, Inkscape 0.92.2 hasn't been released yet! Wait for the official announcements on the user or development mailing lists! Btw. did you see the new icon for website translators team here: https://inkscape.org/en/teams/ ? It was made by Tim Jones (https://inkscape.org/en/~TimJones) who designed a set of beautiful headgear icons for the listed teams. Thank you very much everyone + happy translating! Kind Regards, Maren

Release Fields made Translatable
by Martin Owens 12 Aug '17

12 Aug '17

Dear Translators, The release app has just been upgraded with Platform and ReleasePlatform translation objects. This means that many more fields can be translated into your native language. I've put together a very brief summary here: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape-web/wikis/create-release#translation With screenshots. You may need help to translate different bits, but there aren't that many fields. Best Regards, Martin Owens Website Administrator

DE Site Advice
by Martin Owens 11 Aug '17

11 Aug '17

Dear translators, A company wants to sponsor Inkscape, but their website is in German (I think), can some translators have a look at it and see if it's trustworthy and above board before we accept the sponsorship donation? Thanks a lot! Site of interest: https://www.betrugstest.com/ Best Regards, Martin Owens

Website: New FAQ item for dpi change
by Maren Hachmann 08 Aug '17

08 Aug '17

Hi website translators, for the dpi change, our FAQ has received a much anticipated update: https://inkscape.org/en/learn/faq/#dpi_change As the anchor part of the link (#dpi_change) is used inside the Inkscape program (you can access it from the dpi update dialog), it's important that at some point you switch to the html source and add an id="dpi_change" into the header tag for the new FAQ item. Hope you're all doing well, Kind Regards, Maren

Translation for .92.2: last days
by Marc Jeanmougin 06 Aug '17

06 Aug '17

Hi all! We're about to publish .92.2 and so far, french, and german translations appear to be "fully up to date" (100%) Could you tell if you plan to submit a translation update soon-ish? The languages that appear "close" (>80%) to be fully translated are for instance: breizh (7405/8133), catalan (8073/8133), greek (7655/8133), en_GB (8129/8133), euskadi (7202/8133), spanish (7620/8133), icelandic (7052/8133), italian (7564/8133), japanese (6990/8133), latvian (8089/8133), dutch (8016/8133), portugese (8016/8133), slovak (7882/8133), zh_CN (7776/8133), zh_TW (7598/8133), and any other that you're working on or that I've missed Important note: Don't forget to update your po file with the inkscape.pot file <https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/blob/0.92.x/po/inkscape.pot> to see the complete list of strings to be translated! Nicolas, if you know ways to contact translators that would not be on this list, can you copy it to them? Thanks all for all your work! -- Marc

inkscape.pot missing vital entries
by Alexandre Prokoudine 30 Jul '17

30 Jul '17

Hello, When I run 'make inkscape_pot' for current git master, I get this: [100%] Generating ../../po/inkscape.pot Unsuccessful open on filename containing newline at /usr/bin/intltool-update line 1150. And then the following top menu items are missing from POT (become obsolete): _View, _Layer, _Object, _Path, _Filters, _Extensions, _Help. Both _File, _Edit, and _Text are OK. I'd gladly push updated ru.po, but without these essential bits it's not worth it really. Any ideas what could be causing this? Alex

Translations for 0.92.2
by Eduard Braun 27 Jul '17

27 Jul '17

Hi all, those of you following the discussions on inkscape-devel might already know we're now in string freeze for the 0.92.2 release. That means you can start translating safely, strings should not change anymore until the release. Inkscape 0.92.2 final freeze is scheduled for Aug 4th, that means you should have submitted your translation updates before that date. There are a few new strings since 0.92.1, notably the file update dialog asking how to handle the DPI change was updated. As always, obtain the latest files in our repo (now switched to git): https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/tree/0.92.x/po * I just updated the inkscape.pot file in the repo which you should base your work on. Direct link to most recent version: https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/raw/0.92.x/po/inkscape.pot * For those of you who prefer to work with an updated .po file I uploaded those as a 7z archive at https://gitlab.com/Ede123/bintray/raw/HEAD/po/po_0.92.x_84f9b04.7z Regarding .po vs. .pot: I'm always unsure whether to update the .po files in the source repository or if all of you can work with the .pot file? I prefer not to update the individual .po files because of the typically extreme size of the diff (which is often hard to handle by git tools and unnecessarily blows up our repository size). However I obviously don't want to limit your translation efforts, so please let me know if any of you depend on .po files directly (so maybe I can consider to update the repo completely next time or continue my ".po upload service")! Best Regards and Happy Translating, Eduard

Website: Privacy Policy Addition, Hackfest news and more
by Maren Hachmann 14 Jul '17

14 Jul '17

Hello Website Translators, this time, we have some larger chunks to work on: The privacy policy page at https://inkscape.org/en/about/privacy/ has been updated to include a warning about Inkscape SVG files containing information about your folder structure (when you have exported png images, or linked to raster images). You may never have noticed that page before, as it was a bit semi-public, and it's not linked from anywhere but the registration page, but hopefully will be soon (Martin promised to find a good place for a link). In case you have already worked on it, here is a graphical diff: https://inkscape.org/en/~Moini/%E2%98%85website-update-privacy-2017-07-02 And we now have a long, and interesting news article about the recent Hackfest in Paris, here: https://inkscape.org/en/news/2017/07/12/what-happened-hackfest-2017/ News redirection (switching languages for news articles) should work better now, too. If you find remaining issues, please post a bug report at https://inkscape.org/en/news/2017/07/12/what-happened-hackfest-2017/ You can now subscribe to news articles on the Inkscape website, and even select the language for your subscription. Visit the news page and click on the tiny envelope at the top of the news list. You need to be logged in to the website for this to work. If you want to only be notified when an English article has been edited or published, you can visit your message settings (envelope icon dropdown in the top right corner) after you have subscribed, then select a language. After a couple of weeks with no new strings, the website po files will also be updated this weekend. Thank you for all your help, Kind Regards, Maren
