Translating "regular user" in french
by Romain Thouvenin 03 Feb '07

03 Feb '07

Hello translators, I just started translated the FAQ <http://wiki.inkscape.org:8080/wiki/index.php/FrFAQ> in french, but I'm not sure how I should translate "regular users" in question 1.4. Any idea ? Thanks for your help, and feel free to review what I've written so far. Romain

tutorial-tips.xml
by Alexandre Prokoudine 02 Feb '07

02 Feb '07

Hi, Just to make sure we don't screw up with tutorials. Yesterday tutorial-tips.xml was updated to fix mentioning Gaussian blur as a not available feature. The change is tiny -- just 2 or 3 sentences. If you haven't updated your translation and you still have time for it, please do so. If you won't be in time, we will still have 0.45.1, I guess ;-) Alexandre

[Inkscape-devel] Inkscape 0.45-pre3 released
by Bryce Harrington 02 Feb '07

02 Feb '07

There were several packaging issues discovered with pre2, so I've posted one more pre-release. There are also a few bug fixes included; see the NEWS file for details. Download from: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93438&package_id=9911… Let me know ASAP if there are any remaining problems. Otherwise we'll hopefully get 0.45.0 final out tomorrow or Saturday. Bryce

Re: [Inkscape-translator] Inkscape 0.45 Hard Freeze & String Freeze

Hi, > I would also like at this time to declare String Freeze, to assist > translators in finalizing their translations. If there are any > remaining string issues such as non-translatable strings or fixes to > existing strings, please send patches in ASAP. I made a bug report of all string problems I'm aware of: http://sf.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1645093&group_id=93438&atid… Could other translators please check if they also see the "string translated, but appears in English" problems described there? Plus I have the following questions for translation: "Trace along the boundaries of reduced colors" (in "Trace bitmap" dialog) -- does "reduced colors" mean "less colors" here? "Isotropic scaling (uses smallest: width/xrange or height/yrange)" (in "Function Plotter" extension) -- does this mean: "use the smaller of those two values"? "Scale Factor (Drawing:Real Length) = 1:" (in "Measure Path" extension) -- what does "(Drawing:Real Length) = 1" mean? "Text Outline File" (in "Outline 2 SVG" extension) -- what's a "text outline"?

Rosetta
by Arpad Biro 31 Jan '07

31 Jan '07

Hi, Could those of you familiar with Ubuntu's Rosetta let us know their experiences and other info on that system? What I'm interested in is why we need more than one "master" translation database. Open source projects already have their own SVN, CVS or other repositories, now we have Rosetta which (for me) seems to be independent of those SVNs, and what's even worse, Linspire also created a Rosetta-like system called IRMA: http://irma.linspire.com/ If I'm not mistaken (I hope I am), this means that in the future we will have at least 3 independently maintained translations for a lot of open source applications. Anyone with info on Rosetta and/or IRMA please let us know what you think.

Re: [Inkscape-translator] Scheduling of 0.45 final?
by Arpad Biro 30 Jan '07

30 Jan '07

Hi, > (I could also write a long rant about Rosetta, but won't do it now.) Please do. Do they send their changes to the original projects, or just translate things for Ubuntu (possibly duplicating work and complicating things)?
