[Moin-devel] MoinI18n/pt and MoinI18n/pt-br

[Eduardo Luis Isatto]

Hi,

It's not a matter of lack of collaboration... In spite of the fact that both languages have many (or most of) words in common, there are some exceptions that could stop user comprehension. For example, in Brazilian Portuguese there is no meaning for the word "ecrã" (screen or video). We use "vídeo" instead. "Rato" (mouse) is used to designate the animal, not the pointer device. And so on... :D

So, my opinion is that users in both (and many more) countries would be benefited if pt.po and pt-br.po are run in syncronization, in a collaborative way. It would be particularly interesting for that to have a central coordination.

Leonardo: you have my support for that.

Best regards,

Eduardo Isatto
