Hi all!
We are now in string freeze for Inkscape 1.3, which is due to be released around July 20th.
You should now start to work on translating all those new strings.
INSTRUCTIONS ------------
* Get the 1.3.x branch po file from
https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/jobs/artifacts/1.3.x/download?job=tra...
* Notify people on this mailing list that you are working on it. If possible, please share a link to your in-progress file (e.g. if you work on a branch in your own Inkscape repository copy on GitLab), to invite collaboration. You can also reach out to other translators of your own language, to avoid that people translate the same strings. This could lead to developers not knowing which translation file to merge, and ultimately, to your work not arriving in Inkscape 1.3, if that cannot be resolved in time.
* Translate it using your favorite translation software and keep your public copy updated.
* To get it into Inkscape 1.3.x, either open a merge request to the 1.3.x branch or open a bug report at https://inkscape.org/report .
* The latest date to submit your translation is July 14. It is much better, though, to aim for submitting at least one week before that final date, to have enough time to sort out any issues with your file, or with other people's work.
* If you are not also translating for the master branch at the same time (the program 'Lokalize' would allow for that, for example), please ask developers to also add your changes to the master branch when you submit your work.
-----------------
There's a lot of nice new stuff in Inkscape 1.3!
See release notes draft for some context help: https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/Release_notes/1.3
If you have any questions about the meaning / context / place of appearance of one of the new strings, please ask in the chat at https://chat.inkscape.org/channel/team_translation
(and if there's any info I forgot to mention here, please ask here or there)
Happy translating!
Regards Maren
