My contributions

Asked by GercoKees

A few weeks ago i did some translation suggestions in:

https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/dapper/+source/xscreensaver/+pots/xscreensaver/nl/+translate?show=untranslated

lateron, i tried to download the po-file with only the untranslated items (wich did not work, see a bug-report i filed) did some other translations and mailed the file again.

I also tried to join the dutch translation team.

So far i see nothing happens with my suggestions, and the mailed translations and my request to join the translationteam. Neither the bugreport has been checked.

I would be very glad when someone took a look at this and tell me what i did wrong...

Greetings, GK Bloemsma

Hoi,

Het NL vertaalteam werkt zoveel mogelijk buiten rosetta om, omdat
rosetta geen controlemogelijkheden biedt. Het is dus handiger om het .po
bestand te downloaden, te vertalen en naar de ubuntu-nl mailinglijst te
sturen.

humm, maar dat heb ik toch gedaan? En toch zie ik geen veranderingen in het aantal vertaalde items. Was het niet van voldoende kwaliteit? En is het mogelijk een po-bestand met alleen niet vertaalde items te downloaden? En kan ik lid worden van het vertaalteam?

Pipe down, this is about the policy of the dutch team. It isn't a
launchpad problem.

Sorry, i was new here.. translation on my second comment (2006-05-03; 14:43:37 CEST)
humm, but i did do that though? And i don't see any changes in the number of translated items. Was the quality not good enough? And is it possible to download a po-file with untranslated items only? And can i join the translationteam?

And besides...
I still have no awnser to my questions...

Ik zie niets op de mailinglijst

Niet dat ik weet, maar een goede vertaaleditor haalt dat er wel uit.

> En kan ik lid worden van het vertaalteam?

Pas als is gebleken dat de kwaliteit van de vertalingen goed genoeg is.

I've send a file on april 26th and april 28th. I've send the same files (just to be sure) again this morning (5th of may). Wich editor do you use? Don't you think it would be a good feature to be able to download untranslated items? (Saves a lot of datatransport too)

Please let me know about the quality of the po-files i've send...

To where?

> Wich editor do you use?

Vim (which does not properly filter)

> Don't you think it would be a good feature to be able to download untranslated items?

Yes, you might want to file this as a feature request in rosettas
bugtracker.

Hi,

i've send the files to: <email address hidden>

what i ment with the editor question was: which editor is capable of filter the untranslated items. (sorry for not beiing clear about that)

ok, see:

I did not see them. That list is subscribers-only, are you subscribed?

GercoKees (gercokees) said :

Yes, i've been for a few days. But i got a load of emails then (more then 50 a day), so later i unsubscribed.

I did not know it was necesary to be subscribed to send a po file in.
When sendig the po-file i got this message:
Your mail to 'ubuntu-nl' with the subject

   Een tweetal po-bestanden

Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.

The reason it is being held:

   Verstuurd door een gebruiker die geen lid is op een alleen
ledenlijst

Either the message will get posted to the list, or you will receive
notification of the moderator's decision. If you would like to cancel
this posting, please visit the following URL: <url follows>

So i am still waiting for the moderator's decision.

Due to the high volume of spam, those mails get dropped automatically.

To answer your translator-app question: gtranslator has a "Next
untranslated" keycombination which should do the trick for you.
