Hi Thomas, all,<br>
You were describing good ideas about improving the OSGeo-Live
translation process.<br>
What are ideas on moving forward with this?<br>
Should we aim to incorporate translation improvements into the next
OSGeo-Live 9.5?<br>
Who needs to do what to make this happen?<br>
<br>
Key Milestones <br>
11 Jan 2016 All new applications installed, most old applications
updated <br>
01 Feb 2016 Feature Freeze (all apps updated) <br>
15 Feb 2016 User Acceptance Test (all apps installed and working) <br>
21 Mar 2016 Final ISO sent to printers <br>
<br>
Warm regards, Cameron<br>
<br>

<div>Hi,<br>

I will work on this next week. I was quite busy with job.<br>
I will make a branch to create a first working demo with my
Github user name and then start discussion with explanations
in a markdown file in this discussion<br>

<div>Hi Thomas,<br>
<br>
Since the 9.0 release is now out, this would be the best
time to start the move to Sphinx internationalization,
to give time to translators to catch up with the new
system. I think 6 months are more than enough ;)<br>
<br>
How should we proceed?<br>
I propose we create a git branch until it is ready for a
pull request.<br>
Thoughts?<span class=""><br>

Best,<br>

<pre><span class="">Hi,
I had a discussion at FOSS4G Europe about using Sphinx internationalization
</span><a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://sphinx-doc.org/latest/intl.html" target="_blank"><http://sphinx-doc.org/latest/intl.html></a> (i18n) instead of the current
directory approach.
Why?
It's already used in QGIS project, MapServer project, Python project,..
The advantages:
* Untied translators and contributors jobs by using Transifex
* Keeping the translation updated. For instance, if I do a translation in
French, then the English doc evolves slightly, it's difficult to track the
differences and I need to read nearly everything again or browse the
original file history then apply the change in French. It's not friendly IMO
* Do not use symbolic links when missing files: fallback to english
directly with i18n and not issue with Git (try to build the doc and do a
"git status" to understand)
If you wonder about the simplicity of Transifex, you can see the MapServer
documentation at <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://mapserver.org/fr/development/translation.html" target="_blank">http://mapserver.org/fr/development/translation.html</a><span class="">
The drawbacks:
* It can't make documents differ per language (strict translation)
I've already worked a bit to make things happen about this at the code
sprint but I would like to reorganize the documentation to improve the
experience.
Do you have any opinions before I go further?
Cheers
Thomas Gratier
