Rosetta: A Web-based Translation Portal For PO Files
Translations: Spanish: RosettaReleaseAnnouncementES, Catalan: RosettaReleaseAnnouncementCA, French RosettaReleaseAnnouncementFR, German RosettaReleaseAnnouncementDE, Lithuanian: RosettaReleaseAnnouncementLT, Zulu: RosettaReleaseAnnouncementZU, Xhosa: RosettaReleaseAnnouncementXH
The Rosetta Translation Portal team is pleased to announce that the portal is now ready for widespread use. Rosetta's goal is to make the process of translating free software as easy as possible for both translators and software maintainers. Maintainers can send us PO Templates and PO Files, which will be published through the web for translation. PO Files can then be downloaded at any time.
Rosetta is part of the Ubuntu Launchpad at:
Happy translating!
Rosetta Resources
Several resources are available to Rosetta users and anybody else interested in Rosetta.
The rosetta-users mailing list is available for discussing Rosetta:
Another place for discussion is the #rosetta channel on the Freenode IRC network (irc.freenode.net)
How to Start Using Rosetta
In order to do translation with Rosetta, you will need to register an account on the ubuntulinux.org website:
Next, find something you would like to translate. If there is something you would like to translate which you cannot find in Rosetta, feel free to ask on the mailing list or the IRC channel and we will try and import it for you.
Once you have found the thing you want to translate, start translating!
The Rosetta team is happy to answer any questions you might have.
Bugs in Rosetta
Although Rosetta is being used for translation today, it is expected that users will discover bugs. We will endeavour to fix bugs quickly as they are found, but hope users will understand that this is a new tool.
Currently, the preferred method of reporting bugs in Rosetta is to send a message to the mailing list. Feedback about Rosetta is encouraged and welcomed.
Acknowledgments
We would like to thank all the people who tested Rosetta, found bugs and gave us feedback before the release.
