VolansHi newz2000 :) if you can/want I can help you for the translation of the start page as I have wrote to you yesterday20:30
newz2000hey Volans20:39
VolansHi newz2000 :) where I can found the latest version of the start page? (the html code)20:40
newz2000Volans: branch from this: http://people.ubuntu.com/~mnuzum/projects/start/20:41
newz2000bzr branch http://people.ubuntu.com/~mnuzum/projects/start/20:41
newz2000we'll be working with the stuff in the 8.10 folder, the only file there that's relevant is the 8.10/index_template.html20:41
newz2000(the other html files haven't been updated yet)20:42
Volansok20:42
newz2000wait, let me ensure its up to date20:42
Volanslol20:42
VolansBranched 37 revision(s).20:43
newz2000that's correct20:43
newz200037 is the latest20:43
Volansok, so let's start :)20:43
newz2000Volans: I'm ready, what do you want me to do?20:50
VolansI'm searching the options I have used with html2po atm... give me a couple of minutes20:51
newz2000no prob, let me know when you need me20:51
Volansok, thans20:51
Volans*thanks20:52
Volansnewz2000: and the offline start page will be the same as the hardy one?21:17
newz2000Volans: no, the hardy one will remain mostly unchanged21:18
newz2000oh21:18
newz2000offline21:18
newz2000i don't know where we stand with that21:18
newz2000I guess so21:18
Volansok21:18
Volansbecause I have found the work I have done some times ago and was structured to manage both offline and online start pages21:19
Volansif you want I can extract only the online part21:19
newz2000yes, lets do it that way21:19
Volansok21:20
newz2000I noticed that firefox has an offline page and I thought we were going to use it21:20
Volansnewz2000: I'm doing some tests...22:10
Volansall seems to work fine22:14
newz2000woo hoo22:14
newz2000now what do we do?22:15
Volansthe standard output from po2html is a oneline document, but I use tidy to make it more readable22:15
VolansI can sent to you a zip with the files, a .pot file that is the "master" po file (a template po) that the guys of the doc team will translate copying it to something like $locale.po22:16
Volansafter you have to dowload all the translated po files, put all them in a folder22:16
Volansand run the script I will sent you22:16
Volans:)22:16
newz2000cool22:16
newz2000does it make sense to put this into launchpad for translation?22:16
VolansI think so.. why not?22:17
newz2000I can't think of a reason not to22:17
Volansactually the script assume that the po files names are the locale used in the extensions index.html.en-gb index.html.it that apache needs22:17
Volansyou can confirm that only the title, and the 3 links text should be translated?22:18
newz2000correct22:18
Volans(not the google stuffs and the bottom links)22:18
newz2000precisely22:18
Volansok22:18
newz2000four strings22:18
Volansso I can sent you the files and you can insert them as you prefer in the actual branch22:18
Volans(if needed)22:19
newz2000thats fine22:19
newz2000at one time did you create a project on launchpad?22:19
Volansyes I do when we starded and add you as an administrator22:20
* newz2000 looks for it22:20
Volanshttps://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-start-page22:20
newz2000thanks22:21
Volansthis is the team22:21
Volansand this is the project: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu-start-page22:21
newz2000Volans: do you want to upload the translation file template or would you like me to do it?22:24
newz2000https://translations.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-start-page/trunk/+translations-upload22:24
Volansyou can do that as well, I think that a check from a guy of the doc team (for example mdke) can be good in order to avoid any problem or missing metatag in the pot file22:25
newz2000ok22:26
VolansI'm writing now the email I will sent you ;)22:26
newz2000perfect. Thanks a bunch for your help22:26
Volansdon't mention it... the most hard work today was to remember what I have done this spring :)22:28
Volansnewz2000: mail sent! try it and let me know ;)22:32
* newz2000 checks now22:33
Volansthe script have some comments but is not thinked for a mass usage, only you should launch it onetime in order to create all the translated files to be copied into the server22:33
newz2000that seems clear enough, i'll try it all now22:37
newz2000hmm. I don't think .pot files are presentation templates. :-)22:38
VolansLOL, no, po templates ;)22:39
Volanscopy it to a file.po and use a translation editor like poedit or emacs (with some custom configuration)22:39
newz2000lets see what happens when we upload it to launchpad22:40
newz2000oh, it has to be reviewed by an admin22:41
newz2000Do you suppose that's me or is that someone on launchpad?22:41
VolansI think that every project on first upload of translation files have to be approved by a launchpad or launchpad-translation admin22:41
Volansbut I'm not sure22:42
newz2000I see22:42
newz2000Volans: so what is your new job?22:42
VolansI think a quite correct translation can be web developer... :)22:44
newz2000what are you doing at your job?22:45
Volansatm a new site based on the code of a previous site, making it more general in such a way that after we can make more than one site with the same code adding only different templates and personalized classes22:46
newz2000so are you doing server side development?22:46
VolansI develop all the site workflow, from the virtual host to the css and javascript among with other two guys22:48
newz2000ah, sounds like fun22:49
newz2000so do you use ubuntu at work?22:49
Volanssurely!!! in my company we are 15 developer and 14 of us use ubuntu for our desktop clients and the servers are debian22:50
newz2000that's cool22:51
newz2000Ubuntu is taking over the world. :-)22:51
Volansyeah! :)22:51
newz2000Except the graphics design world (until Adobe creates CS4 for Ubuntu)22:51
Volanslol!22:52
Volansnow I have to go... good night! newz2000 feel free to call me (usually I'm online although not in many channells, call me in query or send me an email) if you encounter any problem :)23:22
newz2000ok, thanks a bunch Volans23:22
newz2000what you did looks good and makes sense so I think I'm clear.23:22
Volansmy pleasure...23:23
Volansgood night (for me, for you, good evening :))23:23
newz2000;-)23:23
Volansbye bye :)23:24
