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

Consistency of pot files
by Anthony Mao 14 May '12

14 May '12

Hi, My name is Anthony Mao, Chinese translator, Traditional(Taiwan) and Simplified(China). I presume all po files should be the same at all languages. How ever I find it does not. Take Koha 3.8 Chinese(Taiwan), French and German as a case. At the 5th entry, let us read first 10 lines: zh-Hans-TW-i-opac-t-prog-v-3006000.po #. For the first occurrence, #. %1$s: CASE 'dc' #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-detail-sidebar.inc:51 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-detail-sidebar.inc:52 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-detail-sidebar.inc:53 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-detail-sidebar.inc:54 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-detail-sidebar.inc:55 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-detail-sidebar.inc:56 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-detail-sidebar.inc:57 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-facets.inc:6 r-FR-i-opac-t-prog-v-3006000.po #. For the first occurrence, #. %1$s: IF ( limit == 10 ) #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-topissues.inc:5 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-topissues.inc:6 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-topissues.inc:7 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-topissues.inc:8 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-topissues.inc:9 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-topissues.inc:10 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-topissues.inc:11 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/includes/opac-topissues.inc:12 de-DE-i-opac-t-prog-v-3006000.po #. For the first occurrence, #. %1$s: cardnumber #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/modules/opac-userdetails.tt:17 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/modules/opac-userdetails.tt:32 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/modules/opac-userdetails.tt:38 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/modules/opac-userdetails.tt:40 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/modules/opac-userdetails.tt:44 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/modules/opac-userdetails.tt:46 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/modules/opac-userdetails.tt:48 #: opac-tmpl/prog/en/modules/opac-account.tt:33 The second lines are different. And the rest are not the same too. Should I disregard them and keep on translation? -- Wishing you all the best. . . . Anthony Mao 毛慶禎＋886 2 29052334 (voice) + 886 2 29017405 (FAX)

Do you work locally, and then upload your file? In this workflow, it could happen that locally corrupted files, for whatever reason, break Pootle DB during upload. I can reload you language files as available in Koha community repository. Kind regards, -- Frédéric DEMIANS http://www.tamil.fr/u/fdemians.html

[Koha] Right To Left in Arabic KOHA
by Massoud Alshareef 03 May '12

03 May '12

Hey Guys, I support Ruth Bavousett's suggested approach if it can be generalized over all CSS components. Based on our experience with Arabic Koha (you can visit some Arabic/English Koha sites to see it in action: http://kfuschools.maktabat-online.net<http://kfuschools.maktabat-online.net:8080/> | http://alshafallah.maktabat-online.net/ | http://mu.maktabat-online.net/; for visiting the Arabic Staff client, click here: http://kfuschools.maktabat-online.net:8080/ using demo/demo for User ID and Password), it must be R2L tweaked manually at almost every component level in the CSS to appear correctly in R2L. This is the reason we have to create and maintain an Arabic CSS for every Koha OPAC site interface. We will be happy to work on Ruth's suggested implementation when his work becomes available for testing. It will be awesome to see the Arabic Koha (say ver. 3.10) comes billy dancing (middle eastern good-time expression!) out of the box without having to tweak each component in order to look super from right to left. All the best. Thanks Massoud M. AlShareef, عالم الانجازات ينحاز دوماً مع المتفائلين The world of achievement has always belonged to the optimist! KnowledgeWare Technologies (P.O.

Update for nb-NO?
by Magnus Enger 03 May '12

03 May '12

Hiya! I managed to translate all of nb-NO for the 3.8 deadline, *except* most of the help pages. I might be able to do a few of them occasionally now, though. If I remember correctly, a lot of changes to these files were committed after the .po files in Pootle were generated. Could someone please generate new .po files for nb-NO so I can keep on translating up-to-date files? Best regards, Magnus Enger libriotech.no
