New subject: looking to contribute

20 Apr 2019

      Hi Joshua,
thanks! I'm looking forward to your first merge request on gitlab :)
Hope you'll catch someone to support you with the Swedish a bit, and let
us know when you have any questions (best in the chat channel).

Hi Maren
Sorry for the late reply,
Thanks for the providing me with a starting point, I will start
translating straight away . There isn’t anyone that I know off who can
help me with the translation but I will try to contact one of the
pervious translators.
I am a little familiar with GitHub.
Thanks
Joshua

Hi Joshua,
great - the Swedish translation for the program hasn't seen any updates
for over a year, and seems to be in a generally neglected state - so I
think this would be the best place to start.
The current status for Inkscape master (soon Inkscape 1.0) for Swedish is:
35% (3019/8500) translated
44% (3787) fuzzy
21% (1785) not translated
38% (14498/37719) of words translated
So there's a lot to do! Is there anyone else in your class or course who
would be able/like to help you? If there isn't anyone, you could also
try to contact one of the previous translators of the file, to get some
feedback - the non-Swedish speakers here can help with logistics and
with Inkscape, but not with Swedish. It's always good to have someone
else to talk things over with.
The po file is available at
https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/tree/master/po
The Wiki link
(http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Translation_information) lists
some suitable translation software.
Are you familiar with git / gitlab already?
(I'm sending this to the translators' list, please make sure you reply
to it, too.)
For quick help with terms in Inkscape, you can also contact us in the
chat at https://chat.inkscape.org/channel/team_translation .
Kind Regards,
 Maren

Hi maren
I will be translating to Swedish.
Is there a particular order you would like me to translate the files
from English to Swedish or should I just do what I can .
Thanks
Joshua

Hi Joshua,
welcome! That's a good idea with the translations :)
Can you let us know which language you would be translating to (from
English)?
The links Milo gave in the chat will be helpful for getting an overview
about where your help will be most useful.

Hi
I am a 3^rd year computer science student, for one of my modules I need
to contribute to an open source project I was wondering if I could help
with translating some documentation
