Hi Gábor,
I understand that classifing contexts is no l.d.o's job, but it's certainly something that would need to be done within Drupal Core development. I'm just wondering if there's still a time window for doing that in Drupal 7, and how it could be done. Sure there's also no easy answer on that, but... any suggestions on how to start changing it?

Hi Jose,
It is not up to localize.drupal.org to introduce contexts. Unless actual Drupal modules and themes use contexts, trying to introduce any context from the outside is not possible. The new Drupal 7 localization API changes allow for contexts, so only modules and themes written for Drupal 7 can take advantage of that (and only if they explicitly do so).
BTW adding plain "noun" and "verb" contexts is not generally useful. Think of "view". As a noun it can be at least three different things I can think of right now: "a database view (as in CREATE VIEW ...)", "a view you see through a window, at the top of the mountain, etc", "a views.module created view". These might be translated to three different things even though all three are nouns.

Hi,
I've just looked at contextualized translation in localize.drupal.org. It's just great, but there is an issue about it...
The only context available is "Long month names".
Shouldn't there be contexts to differentiate word-class (noun/verb) ambiguous words, such as Filter, View, Update?
If there's work to be done on this issue, how could I help?
