Introduction
by Adam Rambousek 09 Dec '05

09 Dec '05

Hello everyone, let me introduce myself, too. My name is Adam Rambousek and I'm from Czech republic. As this indicates, I'm translating Drupal to Czech with the help of a few friends. With 4.6, we have translated some 99% and I stopped the remaining translation waiting for 4.7 release. Would it be possible to release 4.7 POT a bit earlier before final release? I think there should not be much changes in strings and translators could at least import strings from 4.6 to have some translation ready for 4.7 release. -- Adam Rambousek email: rambousek(a)gmail.com www: http://adamovy.cestiny.cz

My introduction
by Michelangelo Partipilo 02 Dec '05

02 Dec '05

I also think it is important to know who is on the list. My name is Michelangelo Partipilo, I am 24 years old so far and I live in Venezuela, so the language I manage is Spanish. I've been lost from the Drupal scene lately. I worked in the translation of most of Drupal to spanish sometime ago, but had to stop due to academic and work related issues. I use Drupal now for managing a simple intranet for my workplace, but since everyone here speaks english I don't use localization and the site is a whole mess because we don't have a defined structure. I'm waiting for the release of 4.7 to upgrade the site. Regards, Mike

i18n possibilities in Drupal
by Fehér János 30 Nov '05

30 Nov '05

Hi, I'd like to know your oppinions about the current and the future state of the i18n possibilities in Drupal. The main problem: a company/community/blog/etc want's to be support more than one language. They wan't to give information for their homies and for the World at once. I suspected three modules, which provide i18n functions: localization module: it provides the user interface support. It's good for that but not capable to help the content/menu/taxonomy/etc translation i18n module: helps to translate a node, but there's no real relation between the original and the translated node. You're not able to translate the taxonomy and the menu system. It needs core-patching. tr module: you can translate the node/taxonomy/menu , but it's in experimential state now, you have to patch the core to use it. you can use special hostname to handle the different languages, but it's not able to handle it as a part of query string as i18n module does. Features I'd like to see (in random order): - a statistics page about which node aren't translated... - Localization API support for modules. These modules can use the region/currency/etc functions or extend them. Eg: ecommerce - I'd love to see one module for UI translation and one useful for the content translation. I don't really know why Rob started a new project. The goals are seems to me same. - Forget patches. Try to force core developers to implement much more i18n functions :] - Handle languages by QUERY_STRING (because of cookies). Rob told me, his tr module made for especially anonymous users. - Special rights for translators. Who can translate a node? The translator group. - There should be API functions for modules, with them the modules will be able to tell which fields should be translateable. The main i18n module should (or tr, I don't know :)) recognize this. Do you have an idea? Tell us! Bests, -- Aries

Hi all, I am Alexandre Racine in Canada, Québec, Montréal. Right here.<http://maps.google.com/maps?q=montr%C3%A9al&spn=0.369342,1.315063&hl=en>(google maps) I am keeping an eye on the French translation and debating some words with my French cousins (France). Drupal is used for my salsa website (see url below) and will be used for our business website soon about information security (computer security, network security, etc). -- Alexandre Racine www.gardienvirtuel.com - Sécurité informatique www.salsamontreal.com - La référence Salsa!

Re: translations Digest, Vol 1, Issue 4

> 1. Re: Introduction (Dries Buytaert) Hi, I am Kobus Myburgh, 30 years old, from South Africa. I have been around for quite a while, but only now that my studies are finished can I really work on getting some stuff done. I am responsible for the Afrikaans translation of Drupal, and also provide Drupal support in Afrikaans for those who wish to have it. I have, however, never had the need specifically for Afrikaans support as English is one of our national languages in South Africa, and therefore most people can speak English in one way or another. I am also a member of the documentation team, focusing specifically on usability, but... *blush*... I've been very quiet, but hope to pick up on that early next year, as soon as I have completed the backlog for this year which resulted from time constraints with my project and exams. Regards, Kobus

Introduction
by Konstantin Käfer 28 Nov '05

28 Nov '05

Hi, I thought it would be a good idea to introduce myself to you, the subscribers of this list. I think it is important to know who is on the list to be able to coordinate our translation effort. My name is Konstantin Käfer, I am 18 years old and I live in Germany, so the language I translate in is of course German. I am going to school yet and I am in K12 (that has nothing to do with the American K12; it means just that it's the twelfth school year). I use Drupal mainly for managing the website of my school, located at http://gwsg.net/. It would be nice to learn who else has also subscribed to this list. Regards, Konstantin -- http://timcn.de
