Website Contents Updates

20 Mar '16

Dear fellow website translators, as we can now return to editing the website, I'm sending the list of changes, that were made during the last few weeks, out now (screenshots were too large for the list, so they are 'in the cloud'): Current contents changes: ------------------------- - https://inkscape.org/en/community/discussion/ has been changed, because the chat is now no longer part of the CMS, but a real django app. See screenshot for changes: https://framadrive.org/index.php/s/AtzlDPKkRPKsACp - The 'Donate' page has some new icons for download: http://www.inkscape.org/en/support-us/donate/ - The SVG-WG donation page has received a small update, see screenshot: https://framadrive.org/index.php/s/yCxTgpaRP2IST89 - The Governance page was replaced by a link to the Board's team page. - The 'Downloads' page was changed to reflect that Eduard and Nicolas are now uploading both 32bit and 64bit devel snapshots (inserted this in English into all translations). - The Tutorials page was updated to include another tutorial series: https://framadrive.org/index.php/s/u2vOjkx1SVCfBB5 - The Hackfest page for 2016 is available for translation now, the old hackfest pages can be found here: https://inkscape.org/fr/hackfest-2015/ https://inkscape.org/es/hackfest-2015/ https://inkscape.org/pt/maratona-inkscape-2015/ https://inkscape.org/ru/hackfest/ - The po files await you :) : http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/WebSite#Translating_other_parts_of_… - Also take a look at the news section, there are a few new articles! (but beware of the caching bug, always make a local copy of your translation): https://inkscape.org/en/news/ So if we happen to have some time during the spring holidays, we can now finally jump into translation work for Inkscape :D Kind regards, Maren

New News: Hackfest 2016
by Maren Hachmann 04 Mar '16

04 Mar '16

Dear fellow website translators, the dates/venue for this year's Hackfest are now finalized, and we've got a new news article for this: https://inkscape.org/en/news/2016/03/03/inkscape-hackfest-2016-in-leeds/ It would be cool if you could translate the article into your language (it's very short). We've also got a new hackfest donation page - but as website cms editing causes errors for the whole web site, and missing pages are now filled in automatically, I'd like to ask you to not translate it on-site for the time being. Last year's page was translated to French, German, Russian, Spanish and Portuguese - we've done some great work! If you like, you can send me the changes from last year's version in your language by email, and I will try if I can somehow get them in. New page: https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/hackfest-2016/ Old pages (as diff source): https://inkscape.org/en/hackfest https://inkscape.org/de/inkscape-hackfest-2015/ https://inkscape.org/fr/hackfest-2015/ https://inkscape.org/es/hackfest-2015/ https://inkscape.org/pt/maratona-inkscape-2015/ https://inkscape.org/ru/hackfest/ Thank you, and sorry for the inconvenience - Martin Owens is working hard on trying to find out what causes this annoying decrease of performance, but so far it appears as if there isn't the 'one, single' change we can make to the system to speed it up :-( Kind regards, Maren

Website Update
by Maren Hachmann 21 Feb '16

21 Feb '16

Dear fellow website translators, the inkscape.org website has been updated with a lot of new functionality. You can read about the main changes for non-editors here in Martin's summary for the developer mailing list: http://sourceforge.net/p/inkscape/mailman/message/34807473/ For translators and editors, there are a few changes about how the website works, too - for example, missing pages are now filled in automatically with the English contents as a fallback. This means that I am going to remove all those copied English pages in non-English languages, and very few very outdated translations, so that the contents will be current and available for all languages, even if only in English. All website translators are now part of the new, official translators team, and we have our own little section on the website, with our own gallery and (soon) chat: https://inkscape.org/de/*translator I will make a writeup with all the main changes and tricks for you soon and update the Wiki page to reflect the new status. Unfortunately, currently, the website has severe performance issues (every action takes about one minute to complete), and there may also be some database problems. Our web team is working on getting this resolved. I will update you when the site is ready to be 'attacked' by us again - currently, editing is very trying for one's patience ;) Kind regards, Maren

Wrong manipulation
by Sylvain Chiron 26 Jan '16

26 Jan '16

Hello, Big mistake today: I wanted to import the current version of https://inkscape.org/en/develop/next-release/ from English to French but my favorite method is always to delete and copy… But in fact I deleted the content for all languages! Could you restore it, please? -- Sylvain

Website update: Comics added
by Maren Hachmann 10 Jan '16

10 Jan '16

Dear website translators, Brynn added a new item to the comic section on the "Around the internet" page: https://inkscape.org/en/community/inkscape-around-internet/ (see screenshot). This is just a really tiny edit - something for your lunch break, maybe ;) ? Would be a pity if visitors missed out on these comics ;) Thank you, kind regards, Maren

Website: use normal login with password instead of social login
by Maren Hachmann 29 Dec '15

29 Dec '15

Dear website translators, with the help of Martin and Duarte we were able to find out the cause for the auto-logout while editing the website. Turns out it's linked to using the social logins via g+/fb/twitter/yahoo. Until the problem will be solved (which will presumably be when the next version of the website will be live), please use the normal login via username/password for your translation work, so you won't run the risk of loosing your work. Kind regards, Maren

Dear fellow website translators, so now the last part of the SVG standardization work thingy is ready for us to translate. You can find the news article here (at the top): https://inkscape.org/news/ I'm sending you my best wishes for the New Year 2016, and would like to say thank you to every translator for their work this year on making the Inkscape website (and the Inkscape program, too) accessible to everyone! Kind regards, Maren

Website: New page + changes
by Maren Hachmann 27 Dec '15

27 Dec '15

Dear website translators, Tav needs support for his travels to the SVG working group meetings, so we've now got a new page asking for donations for this specific purpose: https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/svg_working_group/ Also, a link + text have been added to the 'Support Us' page: https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/ (a news item for this will be added in a couple of days) Hope you'll all have some nice holidays (and maybe still find some time for translating ;) ), kind regards, Maren
