little doubt

Why mailman.pot is in CVS? Isn't it an auto-generated file that everyone can rebuild from source files? My doubt is: is it better to use the CVS mailman.pot or to rebuild the file from source everytime I do cvs update? -- /~\ The ASCII \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML unzip && touch && finger && mount / \ Email! && gasp && yes && umount && sleep

Translation to portuguese
by Aleck Zander 03 Oct '01

03 Oct '01

Hello, I started translating the mailman 2.1 templates files to portuguese (Brazil). I just want to know if there are any group doing this translation, and if I can join this effort. Or if there is no one doing this job, where can I submit the files when I have finished it? Actualy I have already translated the templates, and just have to finish the mailman.pot. Thanks in advance -- -- Aleck Zander - aleck(a)unesp.br Network Analyst - GRC Assessoria de Informatica - Unesp

Special characters in mailman.po
by Joao Sa Marta 03 Oct '01

03 Oct '01

Greetings, I need to use special characters in mailman.po I noticed that in the french translation they have: msgid "disabled" msgstr "désactivé" In the spanish translation : msgid "%(hostname)s mailing lists - Admin Links" msgstr "" "Listas de distribución en %(hostname)s - Enlaces de " "administración" My question is: What should we use ? The html version or the ohter ? ===============================|=================================== = Joao Sa Marta | Email: samarta(a)ci.uc.pt = = Centro de Informatica | Tel: 239 853170 = = da Universidade de | Fax: 239 853189 = = Coimbra | = = Apartado 3080 | = = 3049 Coimbra CODEX | = ===============================|===================================

Hi again... check for fuzzy entries I noticed this case: # /home/mailman/Mailman/HTMLFormatter.py:93 #: Mailman/HTMLFormatter.py:79 msgid "<em>(%(num_concealed)d private member%(plu)s not shown)</em>" msgstr "" "<em>(non sono mostrati %(num_concealed)d membri nascosti)</em>" Now, I suppose %(plu)s is for the english plural "s", but italian has nothing similar... I understand that removing the variable reference breaks the program... so what can I do? -- /~\ The ASCII \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML unzip && touch && finger && mount / \ Email! && gasp && yes && umount && sleep

Error in Spanish templates
by Joao Sa Marta 02 Oct '01

02 Oct '01

Greetings, Last week I've downloaded the CVS, and I am doing the portuguese version, based in the spanish translation (it's easier for me) So I've detected that the es templates have a file private.txt instead of private.html (like all the other languages templates).

German translation of Mailman-2.1?
by Ralf Hildebrandt 01 Oct '01

01 Oct '01

Hi! I've seen the message catalogs for mailman-2.1, but I cannot find the template files for a German translation. Does anybody have these? As a side note: I have begun translating the files in the template directory, since our customer needs a German mailman Right now I must say that the documentation about how to actually make the translated documents work sucks. I had to read README.es (!) to find out the steps I have to carry out... Right now I'm working on a CVS snapshot. -- Ralf.Hildebrandt(a)innominate.com innominate AG +49.(0)30.308806-62 fax: -77 networking people Micro$oft IMC: The Scarlet Pimpernel of postmen. Hard to find, impossible to order about, but every once in a while it saves a piece of mail from disaster. Sometimes even with it's head(ers) intact.

Hi everybody. I was playing whith i18n and the last 2.1a3 CVS and I have much untranslated text. This is strange because: [pioppo@flug LC_MESSAGES]$ msgcmp mailman.po ../../mailman.pot [pioppo@flug LC_MESSAGES]$ msgfmt -v -o mailman.mo mailman.po 575 translated messages, 328 fuzzy translations, 1 untranslated messages. mailman.pot was generated by me with pygettext, so it is up-to-date with the code. Maybe there is still unmarked text? Simone P.S. for italian people watching the list: I sent the full italian translation to Barry last week. -- /~\ The ASCII \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML unzip && touch && finger && mount / \ Email! && gasp && yes && umount && sleep
