[Bug 376464] Re: Software Centre, Synaptic should point to the DDTP

 

For the serverside part: I've filed a RT ticket for hosting Nightmonkey
on ubuntu.com and talked with Istvan about refactoring to ensure that
Nightmonkey won't pose any issues at all (we haven't had any downtime
afaik, but the load will likely be higher).

For the client part, I've found this file in the software centre, which is my best guess on the place the changes should occur: 
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-branches/ubuntu/saucy/software-center/saucy/view/head:/softwarecenter/ui/gtk3/views/appdetailsview.py

  Software Centre, Synaptic should point to the DDTP

Bug description:
  There are a lot of untranslated software descriptions in WebCatalog, Software Center and Synaptic (60000+ strings in most languages, https://translations.launchpad.net/ddtp-ubuntu/ ).
  Relying solely on translators doesn't scale. Would it be possible to add a mechanism to enable translation suggestion crowdsourcing ?

  The basic idea would be a button to "Translate this software
  description" below each untranslated description that would enable
  users to easily provide a translation suggestion to the DDTP using
  Launchpad.

  We could point the user to the DDTP translations in each individual
  software summary shown in Ubuntu App Center or Synaptic. There would
  be a button called "Translate those descriptions"

  Two variables:
  keyword
  repository
