Reminder: Time to update your entry in the Directory of Volunteers

We'll soon be releasing Apache OpenOffice 4.0.1.  We want to give
recognition to the many volunteers who contribute to the success of
OpenOffice.  One way we give credit is in our Directory of Volunteers.
 We link to this from the Help/About box of the product, as well as in
blog posts and release announcements.

If you have not already added yourself to the Directory, please do so.
  Anyone can sign up for a wiki account.

The Directory of Volunteers can be found here:

https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Directory+of+Volunteers

Thanks!

-Rob

Ah I see, you are right JanIV, back in the OOo days, we used to have
an sdf repo which was easiert to point people to. However it has it's
own problems (similar to po) which was the threshold between the
version from the previous release, and whatever was on Pootle at the
moment (and not even comment about source strings).

this is not quite correct, we do have a couple of other steps as well, look
in wiki (http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Localization_AOO) for a full
explanation (like e.g. gsicheck).

I would really not recommend that, if you need to download po files, login
to translate.apache.org first, then go to your project. Using  a direct
link might give you old data (right now it will not because I just synced
the po files).

When doing it through the UI, you are sure to get the newest files, while
doing as you suggest gives you whatever is on disk not synchronized with
the database.

But for sdf file generation, we do not go that way, we use the po file
directory on the vm, because we also have the utilitites on the vm.

this is not quite correct, we do have a couple of other steps as well, look

I would really not recommend that, if you need to download po files, login
to translate.apache.org first, then go to your project. Using  a direct
link might give you old data (right now it will not because I just synced
the po files).

When doing it through the UI, you are sure to get the newest files, while
doing as you suggest gives you whatever is on disk not synchronized with
the database.

But for sdf file generation, we do not go that way, we use the po file
directory on the vm, because we also have the utilitites on the vm.

AFAIK this is the convertor from po to sdf/xliff

You can download the po from the project here:

 Done, but no guarantees, I got a number of warnings the the .po files for
help contained entries of more than 2 lines, I have no idea what juergen
normally does with that.

When I tested danish, I did not bother making sdf files :-)

just a hint, dont build kid speciel, build e.g. --with-lang="kid da"

that allows fast and easy switching (at least in my branch).

I build at the moment --with-lang="keyid da es en-US" (keyid is the new
name for kid in l10n40).

to make it more clear the integration of languages after the
localization deadline was good will to recognize the hard work of the
volunteers. But this should not be the normal procedure in the future
and the new process Jan is working on will help to improve the overall
situation. But we will have translation deadlines in the future as well
and it is of course important that this work is somewhat aligned with
our release plans.

Now all the Bulgarian [1] and Danish [2] packages for Mac, Linux i686 
and Linux amd64 as RPM and DEB are created and uploaded. Their Windows 
counterparts will hopefully make it tomorrow.

A good idea. I created language packs for the keyid pseudo-localization 
for Mac, Linux i686 and Linux amd64 as RPM and and DEB packages and put 
them next to the new languages [3]. Their Windows counterparts will 
hopefully make it tomorrow.

Seeing all the manual effort that is needed to build these localizations 
I respectfully request that translators interested in having their 
language supported do it before the localization deadline.

Thank you! It would still be helpful for translators to have the keyid 
("kid") builds available too. I can't find valid reasons not to build 
them: the "kid" SDF file on trunk is up-to-date, the one for 4.0.1 is at 
http://people.apache.org/~pescetti/tmp/2013-09-keyid/ since 4.0.1 was 
open for blockers only.

Many thanks to Jan for providing the *sdf files and for completing the 
danish translation. I fixed the remaining tag imbalances in the 
Bulgarian translation in both Pootle and SVN.

The first test builds are available now for Bulgarian [1] and Danish 
[2]. For now only the Mac builds, Linux 64bit is uploading, Linux 32bit 
and Windows will probably become available tomorrow.

Wonderful, thanks for the offer!

Yes. please do.

Having it on trunk would have the additional benefit that we add them to 
the schedule of our regular buildbots. New localizations benefiting from 
a few rounds of polishing wouldn't be surprising. AFAIK trunk and the 
AOO401 branch are still 100% compatible from a localization perspective.

I think only 2 people know that, which is why I wrote a docu about a year
ago. juergen is the real guru.

I nobody beats me to it, I will give it a shoot during the weekend (I have
already done for it danish, but not committed it).

Can I commit it to trunk ?

I have to admit that I don't know how get a *sdf file out of pootle. But
if someone can provide me with the latest *sdf file for Bulgarian I'd
volunteer to do a snapshot build for it. I extend that offer also for
Danish as that just got ready.

The builds would be quite similar to the soon to be expected AOO 4.0.1,
but only similar because the revision number approved for the official
4.0.1 release would not have the latest *sdf files.

I look forward to the near future when we'll be able to skip the SDF
step and use the pootle files directly.
