We've weeded out a handful of bugs and issues since 3.1.0, so it is time to call for a string freeze for 3.1.1.
I've CC-ed this to the Arch General list to see if we can get a helping hand with some of our currently neglected translations. As this list may not be quite as familiar with how everything works, PLEASE reply to the list or privately to me if you have questions or want to help out but are not sure how. Our pacman translation policy is outlined here. The important sections for translators are the introduction and up to (and including) pre-release updates. http://www.archlinux.org/pacman/translation-help.html As stated in the above document, PO files have been made available to translate: http://code.toofishes.net/pacman/po_files/ I would like to get the release out within the next 7 days, so the sooner the better for the translations. Languages we currently have: cs_CZ: Handled by Vojtěch Gondžala <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> de: handled by Matthias Gorissen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> en_GB: Handled by Jeff Bailes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> es: status unknown, no current translator fr: Handled by Chantry Xavier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> hu: Handled by Nagy Gabor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> it: Handled by Giovanni Scafora <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> pl_PL: Work in progress by Mateusz Jedrasik <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> pt_BR: status unknown, no current translator ru_RU: status unknown, no current translator If you wish to help translate, but your language is already listed as handled by someone, please contact them at the above addresses. If the language is listed as "no current translator", then please reply to ALL on this message stating you are doing the translation so we do not have duplicated effort (although you are more than welcome to work in teams). Once you have updated or completed a translation, simply tar and gzip the files up and send them back to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a [translation] prefix in the message. For those that are used to the old method of updating translations (GIT patches), those are still acceptable as well. Please prefix the patch with "translation:" so it can be picked out easily. HOWEVER, if at all possible, please do not needlessly update the line numbers in the code! It makes it much easier to see which translations have been changed and updated if line number changes are not 90% of the patch. The "translations" branch is located in my GIT repo; one of the following things will probably be of help. http://code.toofishes.net/gitweb.cgi?p=pacman.git;a=shortlog;h=translations git remote add dan http://code.toofishes.net/gitprojects/pacman.git git checkout -b translations dan/translations -Dan
