Re: New DL option for committers



Thank you thank you thank you Sveinn. I'll give it a go tomorrow and if it works I'll buy you a beer (if you drink beer) if you come to Australia. Heck I'll even homebrew you a batch :-D
Cheers.
Michael.

Hi Rafael.
Thanks for your reply. Ok, I'm looking at the Australian English page
for Bibijen Gnome 3.18 (which I translated a couple of weeks ago) now
and I do not see any options to Review. In the New Action box the
dropdown for Action only has the options Reserve for Translation, Write
a comment, Inform of Submission, and Archive the Actions. So my next
question is how do I review my files when there is no option presented
to me to do it?

Start by choosing "Reserve for Translation" and click "Submit".
Then you will be offered "Upload the new translation", choose your file and click "Submit". Then you're presented to several options; guess "Ready for submission" is the one you'll be interested in. --> "Submit". At last; again several options, probably the "Submit to repository" will interest you --> "Submit".

Took me 4 years to figure this out ;-)
(even had to ask on this list)

Once you have seen the process in action, you understand that D-L is not really a translation tool but a web-interface for managing translation files for a huge organization - with some advantages, and with some weak spots.

Best regards,

Sveinn í Felli

    I'd just like to reinforce some of what Arash has said. I find
    Gnome's translation tool difficult and even though I am the
    coordinator of en_AU I have never been able to commit anything I
    have done. This leaves people frustrated and they go onto other
    projects.

As a coordinator, your credentials should have all the permissions
needed. Probably you just didn't figure out how to do it. Basically,
you're looking for the "Submit to repository" option, which will send
the PO file to the repositories and will archive the translation status.

However, you will only be able to "Submit to repository" when
translation's status is "Proofread" (when a review was sent) or "To
Commit" (when it is all ok, therefore ready to submit).

I hope it helped.
