Questions concerning the website's content
by Sylvain Chiron 03 Jun '16

03 Jun '16

Hi all, I have three questions concerning the website's content. 1. For more space and better reading, headings (h2) are often preceded by an empty paragraph, e.g. in: * https://inkscape.org/en/learn/animation/ * https://inkscape.org/en/learn/faq/ This is true that pages are harder to read without that space; see: * https://inkscape.org/en/develop/getting-started/ * https://inkscape.org/en/contribute/testing/ However I have something against that practice of the empty paragraph; I feel it as wrong semantic. Couldn't we simply add more margin at the top of these headings? I suggest 4ex (it's currently 1.5ex). We could also increase the margin-top of 3rd-level headings (from 1.5ex to 2.5ex). Then we should remove those empty paragraphs (in the source form of <p> </p>). 2. It is quite hard to find the part we want when editing the FAQ; could we subdivide the only text plugin in several text plugins, one for each section? 3. Is it possible to translate the two following pages, or will it be made possible? * https://inkscape.org/fr/apropos/captures/ * https://inkscape.org/fr/teams/ (and why not teams themselves) Everyone may give their opinion about the first two questions; the last one is for those who know… Thank you, -- Sylvain

Website: General Hackfests page, Support Us page updated
by Maren Hachmann 01 Jun '16

01 Jun '16

Dear fellow website translators, as the 2016 Hackfest is over, we've taken the outdated Hackfest 2016 page out of the menu and added a hint about it being outdated: https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/hackfest-2016/ As a replacement, we've added a 'general' Hackfests page, with very similar contents, so even if it looks like a lot of work, it's mostly copy-paste of your already completed translation (see above), and removal of some parts: https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/hackfests/ To reflect this change, we've also had to update the 'Support Us' page here, see attachment: https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/ These changes aren't urgent, so if you're also working on the main program translations, it's no problem if you give those priority :) Happy translating, Kind Regards, Maren

Inkscape Program translations: nearing string freeze / Website: Source download page updated to show link to new alpha source
by Maren Hachmann 30 May '16

30 May '16

Dear translators, Below, I'm forwarding a message by Bryce to devel / inkscape-announce lists which may be interesting to those of you who would like to contribute to the Inkscape main program translations (and who are not subscribed to either of those two lists). For the website translators, there's an update, too: The page http://inkscape.org/en/download/source/ was updated to contain a link to an alpha source code package for the next Inkscape version. Kind Regards, Maren Bryce's mail: =========================================== The alpha for Inkscape 0.92, inkscape-0.92pre0, is released and available for testing from the Download page: https://inkscape.org/en/download/source/ The release is: 0.92pre0 Source Tarball Bzip https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/item/9591/inkscape-0.92pre0.tar.bz2 This is an early preview of our upcoming release and as such can be expected to have some stability issues or incomplete features. See Inkscape's bug tracker for a list of known issues. == Translation == Translators are encouraged to start looking at translation work. String freeze will be in one week (May 22nd), but the i18n POT file has been updated in trunk and we do not anticipate any serious changes between now and string freeze so please feel free to start preparing your language translations. Please aim to get all translation work committed by mid-June. == Packaging == Packagers for Linux, Windows, and OSX should use this source tarball for creating packages for their respective platforms. Note that this was produced using the new cmake system, and the autoconfig build files are not included in this dist; if you require the autoconfig system for your platform you can still generate an autoconfig tarball from our VCS trunk, however you should prioritize shifting to cmake as we will be dropping autoconfig in the future 0.93 release. I plan to post further pre-releases on a roughly weekly cadence until we feel the codebase is stable enough for the final release, which would be late June at the earliest. == About Screen == An About Screen contest should be started at this time - Josh, you've run this contest in the past, will you be available to do it again for 0.92? Can the contest be organized to complete by mid-June or do you think it would require more time than that? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks, Bryce =======================

Website: Another pre-release version is available
by Maren Hachmann 26 May '16

26 May '16

Dear fellow Inkscape website translators, the page https://inkscape.org/en/download/source has been changed to contain a new pre-release version source code package. Some items have been rearranged, the screenshot (https://inkscape.org/de/~Moini/%E2%98%85website-update-download-source) doesn't convey it all, so you may need to compare directly to the English version. Did anyone already try it out? :-) (the ppa version should be the same currently, I think, as there is no separate branch for the release version atm) Kind Regards, Maren

Website: New page and change on 'About' page
by Maren Hachmann 23 May '16

23 May '16

Dear fellow website translators, there have been two changes in the 'About' menu: - Martin has added a page that tells people about the licencing of Inkscape (and works created with it): https://inkscape.org/en/about/license/ The licence text it contains is also available in other languages, see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0-translations If you choose to use one of those (or any other) translations, or even to translate the licence text by yourself (I wouldn't recommend that), please make it clear that the translation is inofficial, and that the only text that is legally binding is the English original (link to it). Also make sure to include the name of the original translator and the correct licence for the licence text translation. You can also choose to keep the English original text, and add an additional paragraph that describes what the GPLv2 means for users and developers in short, if there is no translation for your language available. - On the 'About' page, we've got a new link to the Document Liberation Project. The image itself contains English text. https://inkscape.org/en/about/ I'm still trying to find out if we may translate the image itself (we'd need to have an editable version for that, too). Until that is known, please just download and re-upload the image to use in a new picture plugin. Thank you for your help! Kind Regards, Maren

about permission of translation's editor tool for sujiniku
by sujiniku 26 Apr '16

26 Apr '16

For now, I(sujiniku) do not seem to have the permission to use editor tool. Is Website Editor is "Website Editor" ? Now I can't use "Website Editor" . Because I visit the Inkscape's official site, but I do not see the screen such as editing tools. Or would I need to install something application ?
