[postgis-devel] Fwd: How to upload Korean PostGIS 2.0 manual topostgis.net?

Tue Nov 19 15:59:57 PST 2013

Hi George,

Thank you for your offer!

For pgRouting we would prefer to stay on Transifex.com website. Transifex
is open source, so it allows us to setup our own server, just in case. But
it's less maintenance work and doesn't cost for open projects. And there
are lots of translators active on Transifex.com, so it happens from time to
time, that people join and contribute, who I have never met on the mailing
list. I don't want to miss this opportunity.

For pgRouting it was not difficult to configure Transifex as we used Sphinx
for documentation without much custom hacks, and there are enough recipes
available how to configure it. It took some time to learn how the
publishing and then pulling the changes, but for the translators it's very
easy to contribute, which is the big advantage in my opinion.

We put together some scripts, which might be a bit Sphinx/pgRouting
specific, but maybe they are helpful for others as well:
https://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting/tree/develop/tools/transifex

And there is a translators guide in the pgRouting Wiki:
