Translations Locations

 

Hi All-

Currently, and for some time, our translations of KiCad have lived in a
separate repository from the codebase.  I'd like to merge the translations
into the KiCad codebase in a subdirectory called "translation"

This will allow our translators to only have to check out a single
repository instead of two.  This will also allow us to begin using an
online collaborative translation platform called Weblate[1] that is used by
Fedora, openSUSE, LibreOffice, etc.  The online translation system is
optional, translators are not required to use it, but it does add a number
of useful features and quality checks.

Does anyone have objections to moving the i18n repository into a
subdirectory of the source code repository or know of a reason why we
shouldn't?

Best-
Seth
