Hello, is anyone working on the translation of mailman for italian? I've seen a project "mailman-it" on SourceForge but it seems quite inactive. Thanks. Regards, luca

HTML entities ++
by Daniel Buchmann 30 Aug '01

30 Aug '01

Hi everyone. I wonder what the policy about using HTML entities (e.g. é, å) in message.po is. I've been using plain characters in my norwegian translation so far. Looking at other translations, I see that e.g. the spanish translation is using HTML entities, and e.g. the french is not. What should I do? Since I obviously can't convert my entire message.po, I've been writing a script that splits the entries in my message.po into HTML entries and plain text entries (splitting by filename, not content). Then I can easily replace the norwegian characters in the file containing the HTML entries, with HTML entities. The script would of course need to know which files (Mailman python code files) contains output destined for the web and which files contains output destined for emails. Right now, it has the following rules: 1. Any file not in the Mailman/ directory contains plain text. 2. All files in the Mailman/ directory (and subdirectories) contain HTML text, except for the following files: Mailman/Deliverer.py Mailman/MailList.py Mailman/MailCommandHandler.py Mailman/Handlers/<any file> Mailman/MTA/<any file> There may be more files that contains plain text, of course, so if you know any let me know, and I'll add them to this list of files to be excluded. A file containing both HTML entries and plain text entries would of course be a problem, so they'll have to be dealt with manually. If anyone else want to use this script, let me know, and I'll email it to you. (It is a perl script.) Btw, if you are on IRC, join #mailman on openprojects.net. :) (See http://www.openprojects.net/irc_servers.shtml for a list of servers.) Barry: There is a missing </ul> tag in Mailman/Gui/NonDigest.py line 63, in the 'personalize' details.

German templates - Download for 2.0.6 and development for 2.1
by Dieter Kirchner 29 Aug '01

29 Aug '01

Hi, We have translated the templates a time ago for 2.0.x versions, you may download them here: http://www.oclink.de/tar/mailman-2.0.6_german_templates.tar.gz We will switch to 2.1 soon and will do the same job, maybe with help from others on this list. Ignore the rest if you don't speak german. Alle die hier bereits nachgefragt haben und evtl. auch schon etwas gearbeitet haben können sich ja mal mit mir synchronisieren, das beschleunigt die Übersetzung etwas :-) Ich dachte wir übersetzen, testen einmal durch und bringen das in das Mailmanprojekt ein. Wir werden wohl noch diese Woche auf einer kleinen Produktionsseite umstellen und da dann direkt starten. Ciao, Dieter --------------------------------------------------------------- Dieter Kirchner Systemadministration BUPNET +49 551 54707 62 D-Goettingen http://www.bupnet.de ---------------------------------------------------------------

There may still be some >docstring tagged entries that needn't be translate; if you have >specific questions, just ask on this list. I grabbed the latest from (web)CVS this morning. And i was just asking in general, and i think i follow now. /j

.pot question.
by Johansson Jan 20 Aug '01

The entries with "docstring" tags, are those the help menues? and the ones with "just" msgid the text that is normally displayed runtime? I would like to do a translation -> swedish in two passes. The "runtime" text first, and documentation in the second run.

>We don't have Swedish yet, so it would be great if you contributed! >Can I put you down as the champion of the Swedish translation? You can. Uhm. Just one boggle here, can someone give me a pointer to where the "correct way to do so" is described?
