[Jason Pickering <jason.p.pickering@xxxxxxxxx>]

For those of you who are not familiar with the whole process, I have setup
an online translation server to facilitate the translations of DHIS2 to
multiple languages, which does not involve the process of downloading the
source code and using the i18n tool. This is more appropriate when you are
using translators, who may not be familiar with these tools and just need
something simple, or for large groups of people who may just want to crank
out the translation collaboratively, and not worry about setting up the dev
environment.

What I mean by "sync" is that the translations on the translation server
need to be merged with the source code. Translators can do their work, and
then once they are done (with the entire system or a particular module) ,
the translations can be merged with a particular branch. Usually, we have
done this with trunk and then asked for backports to the stable branch. Up
until now, we have synchronized the translations with trunk, but in theory,
they could be merged with 2.11 or 2.12.

I have not updated this for a while though, but it is easily done. Some
translations teams (French) have preferred to use the i18n tool, while
others (Spanish) have preferred to use the translation server. Whatever
works for your workflow. :)


Hope this helps to clarify.

Best regards,
Jason
