Translation: No reaction

[Dirk Stöcker]

I wanted to improve the German translation of Trac a bit, as many texts are still missing, e.g. 100% of trac.ini, but there is no reaction for several months now. German team at transifex has 5 requests and none of these are either rejected nor approved.

Id did not get a single reply.

Any chance to improve that situation? To ignore people who want to help is a bad ideas, especially as I know that translators are very hard to find.

IOW, do you want to have commit access to trac/locale/de? Or Steffen? (or both?). I think Felix (fschwarz) already said that he didn't have much time for Trac these days.

It's also up to you to decide how you'd like to work with Transifex. Though I tried to document it , I fear I only managed to make it more intimidating than it should be. It's really a matter of installing the tx client, normalizing the catalogs with update, doing a pull from Transifex, normalizing again, checking the changes, commit to svn and pushing back to Transifex.

Yes. Would be fine.

Though cooperation needs to be be solved before I change stuff otherwise it gives bad mood.

But I still need to be in German language group, otherwise I can't change anything? Correct? Exactly that is a problem ATM…

Ok, I've update the authz file, and I just received notifications from Transifex so it sounds like Felix clicked around ;-)

[Felix Schwarz]

It's true that I have not enough time to do translations for Trac. Unfortunately I don't know how to resign in Transifex.

Dirk, I approved you on Transifex together with a few other guys waiting for approval.

Daniel and me rolled the first attempt to reach 100 % for 0.12, and I'm available to get more serious with the German translation again as well. I've announced some pending translations in my patch queue some time ago, that I'll dig out now again.

Hm, I've already been in there. Anyway, thanks Daniel for pushing.

[Christian Boos]

Btw, I also added you Steffen.

[Steffen Hoffmann]

@cboos: Thank you. I'll do my best to act according to the trust put in me.

@dstoecker: Any plan at your side on how to proceed now? We should partition and coordinate, probably cross-review proposed translations to work more effectively. Thoughts?

Hello,

I was busy with other stuff lately (namely spam-filter and iniadminpanel). I don't want to take over administrative stuff if I don't need to do. I'll simply add translations via Transifex and proof-read translations by others (when I have a bit time again :-).
