Translation of web site
- There are two ways of getting files that you need to translate website:
- Checkout actual svn version of inkscape_web module (Working with SVN). To checkout the inkscape_web module use command:
svn co https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/inkscape/inkscape_web/trunk inkscape_web
You need subversion client to do this. - OR Use online browser of subversion repository and download files manually.
- Files you probably want to translate are:
- includes/localized.inc (file contains string to translate menu)
- index-en.inc (main page of inkscape.org)
- discussion-en.inc
- download-en.inc
- mailing-lists-en.inc
- report-bugs-en.inc
- submit2webmaster-en.inc
- submit2webmaster-en-form.inc
- svn-en.inc
- Checkout actual svn version of inkscape_web module (Working with SVN). To checkout the inkscape_web module use command:
- Copy these files and replace "en" string in their name according to the ISO code of your language ("de" for german, "fr" for french, etc...).
- Now you can start your translation. Files are simple text files with HTML tags and in UTF-8 encoding.
- If you have the file translated and really want to submit it, read it once more and correct errors ;)
- Submit the file to the patch tracker at Sourceforge and mark it as a translation.
- Announce the translated file in the patch tracker in inkscape-translator(and optionally in inkscape-devel) mailing list. Persons responsible for updates of website will reply to you and/or submit the new "patch" directly.
If the translation of website is new, the process of making new translation available can take a bit longer because of a need to create corresponding flag and check consistency of the translation.
Translating news and status
News and status information are available for translation too. News items are stored in the /news directory of inkscape_module in separate subdirectories named by language version. The structure of directory with news is:
/news
- en
\- 2005
- 2006
\- 04
- 05
\- 001.inc
- 002.inc
...
- de
- fr
To translate news into your language download/checkout 00x.inc file from "en" directory, translate and submit to the directory of your language(file has to be in UTF-8 encoding) or submit to the patch tracker and announce on the inkscape-translator list. If you want to translate status information, the structure of directories is like in the case of news, only the name of directory is different.
