String freeze for 3.8.2
by Chris Cormack 15 Jun '12

15 Jun '12

We are almost one week out from the release of 3.8.2, which means that on the 15th we go into string freeze before the release. There shouldn't be a huge amount of changes from 3.8.1, but we will soon find out once the translation manager has updated the .po files. Happy translating Chris

po-Files with wrong strings

Hi all I installed Koha 3.8.1. I got the following error while installing the german translation: koha@...:/usr/share/koha/misc/translator$ perl translate install de-DE Use of uninitialized value $key in hash element at /usr/share/perl5/Locale/PO.pm line 466, <IN> line 97052.

Re: [Koha-translate] Multi-Lingual SQL & User Defined Parameters
by Karam Qubsi 16 May '12

Hi Dear Mr Massoud , Dear all, I think this will be very helpful for the people who don't want to use the English interface in Koha , and as you say when we finish translating koha 3.8 to Arabic ( very soon inshaallah) , we will have problems with the people who want to use koha in Arabic and english in the same time e.g: May be some Arab librarian prefer to use koha English interface for the staff client , and in the case that we've used the translated sql files (that your company provided it to us) for the marc21 the Arab librarian who want to use the English interface will have a problem because all the staff client will be in english except for the marc records and if we use the English version of the marc21 sql files the problem will be that the Arab librarian who will use the Arabic interface will see the marc fields in english so if we want to use arabic interface we have to use arabic sql files for marc is it possible to make something like armarc as we have normarc in the SQL structure ?! it's not a standard we don't really have 'armarc' and it is not a solution so the library chose its Marc flavor and all the librarian in that library will be forced to use this armarc , but will help to make the installation of the translated Arabic marc more easier and for the preferences description is included in the po files but the preferences still in English (the main term ) maybe the best solution is to make all the strings in koha included in the po files I don't have deep technical background but this will be more flexible for koha users all over the world for other languages not only for the Arabic language wish you will be able to do that for all the koha community :) thanks a lot for you Mr Massoud and thanks you all in Koha community for helping us :D Karam Qubsi Koha Arab Translating Team http://koha.wikibrary.org/ Wikibrary for Arab Librarians http://wikibrary.org > Date: Wed, 16 May 2012 09:00:57 +0300 > From: Massoud Alshareef <massoud(a)kwareict.com> > Subject: [Koha-translate] Multi-Lingual SQL & User Defined Parameters > To: koha-devel(a)lists.katipo.co.nz, koha(a)lists.katipo.co.nz, > koha-translate(a)lists.koha-community.org > Message-ID: > <CAMp2hxbU3fzajsQjgd-hou-RiPLmJ7y8Wf3XU=k2=5W15pPzmQ(a)mail.gmail.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" > > Hello, > > I have asked a question about two years ago about when we can have Koha > support of Multi-Lingual SQL files (used for marc21/Auth fields description > in the Staff client) and Multi-Lingual users defined parameters (used for > describing items/ libraries & groups/ locations/ patrons categories/ etc), > and the answer from Koha development then was that it is > under consideration but not in the development pipelines yet, as it will > require some re-structuring in Koha system databases and controls.

Multi-Lingual SQL & User Defined Parameters
by Massoud Alshareef 16 May '12

16 May '12

Hello, I have asked a question about two years ago about when we can have Koha support of Multi-Lingual SQL files (used for marc21/Auth fields description in the Staff client) and Multi-Lingual users defined parameters (used for describing items/ libraries & groups/ locations/ patrons categories/ etc), and the answer from Koha development then was that it is under consideration but not in the development pipelines yet, as it will require some re-structuring in Koha system databases and controls. That means, Koha will remain a single language in these areas. With Koha 3.6 release, I noticed the inclusion of "Spanish translation for SQL files" in the INTERNATIONALIZATION enhancement section. Does this mean that Spanish Koha, or any non-English Koha, now has both Spanish and English SQL files, where Koha users can switch between more than one language when, for instance, editing marc records in the staff client ? Koha Preferences description used to be in SQL files, which means a single language prefers, and then moved into PO files format with 3.2 release (I think) and thus Preferences became multi-lingual since then. Thank you Koha development for elaborating on the issue of having a fully bilingual Koha. BTW, Arabic Koha 3.8 is now on the fast-lanes translation speed to be completed within 3-4 weeks. See Arabic Koha 3.8 OPAC demo site on http://176.34.184.60/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=%D8%B9%D9%84%D9%85 Thanks Massoud M. AlShareef, The world of achievement has always belonged to the optimist!

Koha 3.8.1 entering string freeze
by Chris Cormack 14 May '12

14 May '12

Hi All As promised, the 3.8.x branch has entered string freeze in preparation for the 3.8.1 release next week. "So?" you ask, "What does this mean for me?" Are you a developer? - If so just be aware I will only be pushing patches that do not contain changes to any of the translatable strings from now until the release. Are you a translator? - Once the translation manager emails to say the po files are updated, you are clear to translate your hearts out. Are you a Koha user? - If you have the skills or know someone who does, check out the 3.8.x and do some testing on it, that would be awesome. Are you a brewer? - I quite like a nice IPA Chris
