Dear OpenERP Contributors and Translators,
We are now approaching the final release of OpenERP v6.0, and Release
Candidate 2 will be out soon.
As some of you are already aware, we have done an extensive cleanup of
the translations terms throughout all OpenERP projects, in order to
make life as easy as possible for translators (much less
spurious/incorrect terms to translate, and more real terms detected)
The current set of terms to translate are finalized, and should only
undergo minor changes until the final release.
Now it is really time for translation teams to organize a complete
review of the 'trunk' translations in their languages, as some of them
have already begun doing (German, Dutch and Spanish translations seem
to be the most advanced ones at the moment)
You won't necessarily need to write yourself the translations for
thousands of terms, as all translations benefit from suggestions from
OpenERP and Launchpad communities (including suggestions from other
projects).
The first step for members of translation teams would thus be to
review all suggestions in their language via Launchpad's interface
(look for the Needs Review link in your language, some languages have
hundreds of them):
https://translations.launchpad.net/openobject-addons/trunk
Please keep in mind that being part of a translation is not just a
privilege but also a duty towards the Community!
If you feel you won't manage to do it in time for v6.0, do not
hesitate to coordinate with fellow translators from your country. You
could invite those with many translation suggestions to join your team.
Feel free also to request the assignation of a different translation
team to your language, or the removal of an assigned team (opening it
up so anyone from the community is allowed to confirm translations)
Translating and organizing translation teams is explained in details
in the documentation:
http://doc.openerp.com/contribute/07_improving_translations.html
For any questions or discussion, please join the openerp-community (or
openerp-expert-localization) mailing-lists.
Let's make OpenERP v6.0 available for everyone in their native language!
Thank you all!
