Re: Vala tutorial translatable

[Daniel Mustieles García <daniel mustieles gmail com>]

I agree with you, since wiki has some advantages that a Mallard structure hasn't, but translating a wiki can be harder work, because if there is any modification in the original page, translated pages can be outdated if translators don't track every change in the original page. Also, reviewing this translation can be harder since it must be a «lineal» translation, while a po file can be translated without following any order.

This tracking is actually done by DL, showing statistics in the module's page, so it very easy to know if a module has been updated or not. Also, there is no need to include this tutorial in gnome-devel-docs; it could be a module like gtkmm-documentation.

Anyway, if there is no way to export this page to a module, we'll create a new wiki page with the translation.

Many thanks for your help :)

Keeping the Vala Tutorial on the wiki makes it easier to maintain in general, especially by the people responsible for it's creation and upkeep.  The developer docs do link to it, but at this time this tutorial does not really fall under the domain of the documentation team, but rather the people working on the Vala language.  Duplicating it in the devel-docs will of course introduce the problem of keeping things in sync, and possible losing the current vital contributors to this important document.

I think for now, the best choice really might be to create a new Spanish language wiki page.

Many thanks Gil.

I think the second idea (moving it to a translatable system based in PO files) is the best choice :)

Hi,

It's a wiki page, so the more he/she can do about it is creating another
page in the wiki (l.g.o/Vala/Tutorial/es ?) and start translating there
maybe.

You could ask the tutorial author and the docs team about moving that to
their growing developer documentation so that he/she could have a proper
translation system to translate on.

Cheers,
