Hi,
It’s not my server we’ll be using. It is someone else’s and it might
be too late to switch to 5.0 for this conference, but perhaps we’ll
consider that option for NvDACon 2015.2 (if that’s ever going to be
held; if so, I’m thinking about asking a regional group to plan 2015.2
for fall 2015; what I mean by regional group is a group of language
communities coming together to plan the conference from scratch).
Cheers,
Joseph

translations during NVDACon: a brief outline
Hi joseph,
it is a great idea!
why not to host the session..
I have one technical question..
are you going to switch teamtalk server to 5.0?
almost all participants from poland, russia and so on have the tt5
.. so please upgrade your server

Hi translators and potential colleagues,
I’m about to record an audio tutorial explaining our translations
process, as well as to add a translations seminar at the upcoming
NVDA conference.
As for the tutorial/seminar, here’s the outline I’m proposing:
1.What is involved in NVDA translation?
2. How to join the translations workflow.
3.Software needed: SVN client, Poedit, a Unicode-aware text editor
4.Checking out and committing files
5.Understanding, translating and testing your main and add-on
interface translations
6.How symbols and character descriptions work and how to translate
them.
7.Translating, testing and refining documentation.
8.Tips on translations workflow: testing documentation, file
encoding, braces in po files and so on.
9.Working in groups: process management, new maintainers and
communicating deadlines.
10.Key terms and dates to remember: translatable string freeze,
translation submission deadline for a release and so on.
I expect the tutorial (or the seminar) to take no more than an
hour. If a seminar is desirable, it’ll be held on the second day
of the NVDACon (March 21^st ) as second to last session. If a
tutorial is preferred, I can record it (or someone can record it
as well) and will be available sometime next month.
Please let me know (preferably offlist) if you have comments on
the tutorial/seminar contents and your preferred mode of
information (tutorial or a seminar). Thanks.
Cheers,
Joseph
