Maren,

I have bought the full version of PoEdit to help the developer of the app. Will it help me on this work then? If the file I`ll have to work will be a po file? :)

Hi Victor,

the news translation is really the easiest way to translate something on
the website, as it doesn't have all those plugins and stuff. It would
have been a really good beginner's job ;)

- The updated FAQ is currently not yet on the real website, but you can
start translating to pt-br at staging.inkscape.org instead (choose any
language you like for filling it in), and copy over later (there are
only very few link plugins, so copying will be possible without very
much hassle). Much of it is already translated, as the new FAQ also
contains parts from the old FAQ, and Duarte has already invested a lot
of work into translating the old FAQ.

The English new FAQ is here:
http://staging.inkscape.org/en/brynns-user-faq/ .
Duarte's translation of the old FAQ is here:
https://inkscape.org/pt/aprender/perguntas-frequentes

Always make sure that you do *not edit the English FAQ* by looking at
the url! (In fact, please don't edit any page starting with 'brynn...'
in English.)

Also make sure you have a backup of the source from your translation of
the FAQ on your own computer, as on staging, people practice, and they
may accidentally change your work.

You will also need an account on staging.inkscape.org for this, and some
permissions. I need to know your username there so I can grant you
permissions on staging.

- The official tutorials for Inkscape are translated in the inkscape
trunk, ask Nicolas Dufour (jazzynico) about this (I think you have
already contacted him earlier). For the next release, though, this may
be too late. Bryce Harrington wrote something about next week...

- The fixed parts of the site can be translated from the files for the
website at launchpad. I will append a current po file to this message, BUT:
- the file currently contains too many entries (for many of those,
translations do already exist, but are not automatically added to the file)
- the contents of the file is still changing heavily
- there is a better system for translating those on the way, but not yet
fully implemented.

So you *can* work on it, but:
- we may not need everything, because some of it already is translated
- it will still change
- there will be a better way for doing this soon

All in all, I think Duarte's suggestion of starting with the news (after
you have practiced on staging) is really a very good idea ;)

Regards,
 Maren

PS: I had to remove the attachment, because the mailing-list refused to
accept it. Contact me directly, if you want the .po file ;)
