1 1 Notes on the Free Translation Project 2 *************************************** 3 4 Free software is going international! The Free Translation Project is 5 a way to get maintainers of free software, translators, and users all 6 together, so that free software will gradually become able to speak many 7 languages. A few packages already provide translations for their 8 messages. 9 10 If you found this `ABOUT-NLS' file inside a distribution, you may 11 assume that the distributed package does use GNU `gettext' internally, 12 itself available at your nearest GNU archive site. But you do _not_ 13 need to install GNU `gettext' prior to configuring, installing or using 14 this package with messages translated. 15 16 Installers will find here some useful hints. These notes also 17 explain how users should proceed for getting the programs to use the 18 available translations. They tell how people wanting to contribute and 19 work on translations can contact the appropriate team. 20 21 1.1 INSTALL Matters 22 =================== 23 24 Some packages are "localizable" when properly installed; the programs 25 they contain can be made to speak your own native language. Most such 26 packages use GNU `gettext'. Other packages have their own ways to 27 internationalization, predating GNU `gettext'. 28 29 By default, this package will be installed to allow translation of 30 messages. It will automatically detect whether the system already 31 provides the GNU `gettext' functions. Installers may use special 32 options at configuration time for changing the default behaviour. The 33 command: 34 35 ./configure --disable-nls 36 37 will _totally_ disable translation of messages. 38 39 When you already have GNU `gettext' installed on your system and run 40 configure without an option for your new package, `configure' will 41 probably detect the previously built and installed `libintl' library 42 and will decide to use it. If not, you may have to to use the 43 `--with-libintl-prefix' option to tell `configure' where to look for it. 44 45 Internationalized packages usually have many `po/LL.po' files, where 46 LL gives an ISO 639 two-letter code identifying the language. Unless 47 translations have been forbidden at `configure' time by using the 48 `--disable-nls' switch, all available translations are installed 49 together with the package. However, the environment variable `LINGUAS' 50 may be set, prior to configuration, to limit the installed set. 51 `LINGUAS' should then contain a space separated list of two-letter 52 codes, stating which languages are allowed. 53 54 1.2 Using This Package 55 ====================== 56 57 As a user, if your language has been installed for this package, you 58 only have to set the `LANG' environment variable to the appropriate 59 `LL_CC' combination. If you happen to have the `LC_ALL' or some other 60 `LC_xxx' environment variables set, you should unset them before 61 setting `LANG', otherwise the setting of `LANG' will not have the 62 desired effect. Here `LL' is an ISO 639 two-letter language code, and 63 `CC' is an ISO 3166 two-letter country code. For example, let's 64 suppose that you speak German and live in Germany. At the shell 65 prompt, merely execute `setenv LANG de_DE' (in `csh'), 66 `export LANG; LANG=de_DE' (in `sh') or `export LANG=de_DE' (in `bash'). 67 This can be done from your `.login' or `.profile' file, once and for 68 all. 69 70 You might think that the country code specification is redundant. 71 But in fact, some languages have dialects in different countries. For 72 example, `de_AT' is used for Austria, and `pt_BR' for Brazil. The 73 country code serves to distinguish the dialects. 74 75 The locale naming convention of `LL_CC', with `LL' denoting the 76 language and `CC' denoting the country, is the one use on systems based 77 on GNU libc. On other systems, some variations of this scheme are 78 used, such as `LL' or `LL_CC.ENCODING'. You can get the list of 79 locales supported by your system for your language by running the 80 command `locale -a | grep '^LL''. 81 82 Not all programs have translations for all languages. By default, an 83 English message is shown in place of a nonexistent translation. If you 84 understand other languages, you can set up a priority list of languages. 85 This is done through a different environment variable, called 86 `LANGUAGE'. GNU `gettext' gives preference to `LANGUAGE' over `LANG' 87 for the purpose of message handling, but you still need to have `LANG' 88 set to the primary language; this is required by other parts of the 89 system libraries. For example, some Swedish users who would rather 90 read translations in German than English for when Swedish is not 91 available, set `LANGUAGE' to `sv:de' while leaving `LANG' to `sv_SE'. 92 93 Special advice for Norwegian users: The language code for Norwegian 94 bokma*l changed from `no' to `nb' recently (in 2003). During the 95 transition period, while some message catalogs for this language are 96 installed under `nb' and some older ones under `no', it's recommended 97 for Norwegian users to set `LANGUAGE' to `nb:no' so that both newer and 98 older translations are used. 99 100 In the `LANGUAGE' environment variable, but not in the `LANG' 101 environment variable, `LL_CC' combinations can be abbreviated as `LL' 102 to denote the language's main dialect. For example, `de' is equivalent 103 to `de_DE' (German as spoken in Germany), and `pt' to `pt_PT' 104 (Portuguese as spoken in Portugal) in this context. 105 106 1.3 Translating Teams 107 ===================== 108 109 For the Free Translation Project to be a success, we need interested 110 people who like their own language and write it well, and who are also 111 able to synergize with other translators speaking the same language. 112 Each translation team has its own mailing list. The up-to-date list of 113 teams can be found at the Free Translation Project's homepage, 114 `http://translationproject.org/', in the "Teams" area. 115 116 If you'd like to volunteer to _work_ at translating messages, you 117 should become a member of the translating team for your own language. 118 The subscribing address is _not_ the same as the list itself, it has 119 `-request' appended. For example, speakers of Swedish can send a 120 message to `sv-request@li.org', having this message body: 121 122 subscribe 123 124 Keep in mind that team members are expected to participate 125 _actively_ in translations, or at solving translational difficulties, 126 rather than merely lurking around. If your team does not exist yet and 127 you want to start one, or if you are unsure about what to do or how to 128 get started, please write to `coordinator@translationproject.org' to 129 reach the coordinator for all translator teams. 130 131 The English team is special. It works at improving and uniformizing 132 the terminology in use. Proven linguistic skills are praised more than 133 programming skills, here. 134 135 1.4 Available Packages 136 ====================== 137 138 Languages are not equally supported in all packages. The following 139 matrix shows the current state of internationalization, as of June 140 2010. The matrix shows, in regard of each package, for which languages 141 PO files have been submitted to translation coordination, with a 142 translation percentage of at least 50%. 143 144 Ready PO files

counters in the preceding matrix are higher than the number of 1249 visible blocks let us expect. This is because a few extra PO files are 1250 used for implementing regional variants of languages, or language 1251 dialects. 1252 1253 For a PO file in the matrix above to be effective, the package to 1254 which it applies should also have been internationalized and 1255 distributed as such by its maintainer. There might be an observable 1256 lag between the mere existence a PO file and its wide availability in a 1257 distribution. 1258 1259 If June 2010 seems to be old, you may fetch a more recent copy of 1260 this `ABOUT-NLS' file on most GNU archive sites.

Of course you have to respect the GNU Library General Public 1270 License which covers the use of the GNU `gettext' library. This means 1271 in particular that even non-free programs can use `libintl' as a shared 1272 library, whereas only free software can use `libintl' as a static 1273 library or use modified versions of `libintl'. 1274 1275 Once the sources are changed appropriately and the setup can handle 1276 the use of `gettext' the only thing missing are the translations. The 1277 Free Translation Project is also available for packages which are not 1278 developed inside the GNU project. Therefore the information given above 1279 applies also for every other Free Software Project. Contact 1280 `coordinator@translationproject.org' to make the `.pot' files available 1281 to the translation teams. 1282
