Because many people have been writing recently about the translation stuff - I have made this Language Development Kit.
To get rid of many other problems - there are some rules about the translation process (regarding only the people that wants their translation to be shipped with program or put on our web page):
- Send me the finished translation. No partially finished, but fully (either a program translation or program+help translation)
- If you do not want to be surprised that someone else has finished the translation (in your native language) before you - please inform me (by sending mail to copyhandler@o2.pl) that you will translate the stuff. In the situation where some other person already have started doing the job (or has volunteered to do so before you) - let me know if you want me to give that person your e-mail address (and vice versa) or just to inform you that someone is doing the stuff.
- You can always do the parallel translation so there would be two of them ;-]
- You have to agree that if someone else will volunteer to do the same job as you and want the mail exchange (look @above) - I will give him/her your e-mail address (and I will send his/her e-mail address to you).
- You definitely have to sign in to the discussion group 'chdev' (the current mail addresses are in the program's about box). I will send there any modifications that has been made by me to the original file(s).
- When I will be about to release the new version of program I will send the info about his plans to this group so anyone would get to work and incorporate the changes to the translation. When this fact occurs I will wait full week (7 days) for your translations to appear on my e-mail account (copyhandler@o2.pl). After this time I will release the program only with the translations that has been updated (maybe I will wait a few additional days - but not always).
I you have any questions - send it to me or post on the discussion list (copyhandler or chdev - depends on the topic) - the current addresses are in the about box in the program.
