New locale ca@...151...
by Joaquim Perez 09 Apr '10

09 Apr '10

Hi, Catalan l10n team (ca locale) would like to create a new locale for Valencian variant (ca@...151... locale) for Inkscape. This locale is already setup in gnome as you can see in http://l10n.gnome.org/teams/ca@...250... I would be the leader for both catalan team and ca@...151..., If there is any inconvenience. Now I wonder if there is any procedure to create the new locale or I just have to submit a new bug in launchpad with the PO file for ca@...250... Regards, Quim Perez

launchpad

Hi, We seem to have reached agreement that we will not use Rosetta for translation. However I see that Inkscape's translation was imported to Rosetta for Lucid nevertheless: https://translations.launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/inkscape Does anybody know how to stop Canonical apart from shouting at them really loud?

adding the Romanian NSIS installer
by Cristian Secară 18 Jan '10

18 Jan '10

Hello, Please add the NSIS installer translation for Romanian from here: http://www.secarica.ro/traduceri/inkscape_0.47_installer_romanian.zip and also add the corresponding line to the main NSIS script, which should be !include Romanian.nsh Additionally, the default template for Romanian can be added too: http://www.secarica.ro/inkscape_0.47_default_template_romanian.zip which is modified as per Inkscape wiki for translators instructions. Regarding the template modification, my question is -- what changes from the practical perspective ? I mean, where can I observe any change when using Inkscape ? >From my language point of view the changes are minimal, like the page is now specified in millimeter and the label "Layer 1" is translated. What property in the Inkscape UI display this ? Thank you, Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro/

product name variable in nsis installer language file
by Cristian Secară 13 Jan '10

13 Jan '10

In the NSIS lnaguage files most strings are using the ${PRODUCT_NAME} variable for the installed product name, except for three places where "Inkscape" is mentioned explicitly (line 32, 41 and 44 if speaking about english.nsh file). Is this an intended behaviour, or is a mistake ? The other translations should follow exactly the same syntax regarding the "Inkscape" name occurrence ? Thank you, Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro/

update for Romanian translation
by Cristian Secară 12 Jan '10

12 Jan '10

Hello, Please update the Romanian translation with this one here http://www.secarica.ro/traduceri/inkscape_0.47_lang_ro.zip This is merely a spelling, terminology and bugfix revision. I have the explicit consent of the previous translator, PaulS. Short changelog: - changed all Romanian legacy ş and ţ characters with the correct ș and ț characters (possible only in recent years, due to UI font glyphs completion in major Linux distros) - reverted the RGB and CMYK acronyms to the English / international convention - just a few terminology unification with GIMP (in fact, there were some more in the other sense, i.e. Inkscape -> GIMP) - just a few terminology bugfixes - just two percents in translation advance Right now I do not intend to maintain the inkscape Romanian translation, mainly because I am the maintainer of the one for GIMP and there is still a lot to do there. However, from time to time, if there will be no significant progress here, I will probably do some further steps in advancing with the Inkscape Romanian translation. Note for potential translators: feel free to join, discuss and ask any question on the list for people interested in Romanian localization of free software, located at http://groups.google.com/group/diacritice The Romanian Inkscape translation is also available in a collaborative form at http://tradu.softwareliber.ro site; although that place is useful for those wanting to contribute only on occasions, as far as I know the online tool (still) has a few limitations, like the fact that the user comments are not displayed and/or are wipped out from an existing .po file. (I myself have translated the .po file offline, with Poedit) Thank you, Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro/

Any interest for the translations to move to Rosetta on LP?
by Joshua A. Andler 09 Dec '09

09 Dec '09

Hey Translators! Following is a message that was sent to Bryce regarding translations. Given that I don't do any translating, I don't feel it appropriate to chime in other than saying that it sounds like it would be beneficial to our translators. Would you all be interested in giving it a shot?

Inkscape 0.47 Downloads Page - Translations needed
by Joshua A. Andler 24 Nov '09

24 Nov '09

Hey Translators, I have updated the downloads page for 0.47 located at: /inkscape_web/trunk/download/download-en.inc It appears that we have had cs, de, es, fr, it, ja, and ru translations in the past just so people are aware. Also, my grep skills seem to be failing me as I can't find the file which contains the version information "$actual_version". So, if anyone knows where this is located or has better luck finding it, if you could bump it to 0.47 that would be appreciated. (I will continue looking though) Cheers, Josh

Can't edit the wiki - content gets erased when saving
by Lucas Vieites 23 Nov '09

23 Nov '09

Hi, I trying to create this wiki page: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/ReleaseNotes047-es with the copied content from http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/ReleaseNotes047 but when I save the content keeps getting erased and appears completely blank. This only happens when I copy the complete text of the original release notes, not when I copy small parts of it. I seems to break at a certain number of characters. Is this a known behaviour? (I'm using Firefox 3.0.13 on Suse Linux) If this persists, what can I do? Should I breakthe Release notes in two pages? Thanks, -- Lucas Vieites Blog: http://blog.codexion.com/

Finnish translation
by Riku Leino 08 Nov '09

08 Nov '09

Hello again, Please ignore my last post. I was a bit too confused when I sent it. The reason is that the Finnish translation has not been commited yet even the bug tracker had status commited. Could you please commit both translation files from the bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/448631 before the release of 0.47. Thanks Riku
