Re: translating gnome-user-docs

Just as a sidenote, are you going to update to 2.20 gnome-user-docs since the current version is 2.18.2+svnxxx? Partial Finnish translation is now available in the trunk, and I'd like to know if we should submit an Ubuntu-specific patch before the release.

Greek is also now a newcomer to the trunk version of gnome-user-docs.

My question involves the Ubuntu changes. Would people prefer to see
the templates for these uploaded to Rosetta as with ubuntu-docs, and
translate them there?

Well, I personally would prefer not, as it's not being done for other documentation either. I would rather encourage every Ubuntu translators to also work with the upstream, a starting point for gnome-user-docs would be http://l10n.gnome.org/module/gnome-user-docs

1. If your language is not already included, get the POT file and start translating for your own language 2. If your language is there but only partially translated, get the existing PO file and continue translation from there 3. Find out who's able to do svn uploads to GNOME repository so that you are able to send your new or updated PO file (possibly with figures) to http://svn.gnome.org/viewcvs/gnome-user-docs/trunk/ 4. Remember to make sure that the translation will be included in Ubuntu, if the case is (like it's here) that Ubuntu release is nearby and the new GNOME version is about to be released soon.
