Re: Portuguese Translation Team (pt)

[Juliano Camargo <julianosc protonmail com>]

Hi Claude,

It depends on what you believe is "ready". Let make me clear, I am not a Portuguese, I am Brazilian. I speak 
Portuguese but not as they do in Portugal. Still, I am kind of learning how to speak like they do and I use 
Linux as OS so "why not merge the two things?" I was asking myself.

That is the first point I want to stress, I am not full aware of the vocabulary they use.

I am not a power user, just a normal one. I am aware of some tricks and do have a little knowledge about 
Git/GitLab. The same can be said about English, I am not actually proficient and that is the second thing, I 
am still in learning time.

About the group, yes, I did tried to contact them but as Duarte "HappyGuy" Lorete (Mailing List Owner) said 
me, the group is dead. It never had full acceptance, people just did what they wanted. He can talk about it 
better than me, I am just getting in the boat right now.

I did tried to contact to Mansil (mmsrs sky com), the team reviewer, five days ago but I did not receive a 
answer yet.

Well, that is all the working done till now. Navigating through 
https://l10n.gnome.org/languages/pt/gnome-3-38/ui/ I can see a bunch of "Translated" things but none 
committed. That is sad. I received a reddit message from João Matos 
(https://l10n.gnome.org/users/joaonmatos/) and he said that Mansil was trying to do things but was unable to 
fulfill it. Also said that translations was hanging indefinitely until someone do something and he leave the 
team. Come on! Let the community decide if something was write wrong. There is the report button for that, am 
I right? This is sad.

I have time for now till end of the year (I believe?) so I want help where it is needed.


At.te,
Juliano

&gt; &gt; Hi,
&gt; &gt; There is no coodinator nor submitter on the Portuguese (pt) Translation Team, can someone add me as 
one? I would like to push forward all the translations that are now stucked and contribute until the Gnome 
3.38 realease.
&gt;
&gt; Hi Juliano,
&gt;
&gt; Thanks for the proposal. So are you ready to take the responsibilities
&gt; of a coordinator as explained in:
&gt; https://wiki.gnome.org/TranslationProject/TeamCoordinatorResponsibilities
&gt;
&gt; Do you know if the group gnome_pt yahoogroups com is still active? If it
&gt; is, did you discuss the absence of a coordinator there?
&gt;
