Major Plone translations update

Hi all,

today I updated all the translation files to match the Plone 3.0 release
candidate 1 state.

For Archetypes and ATContentTypes there have been only about three or
four new messages each, but in the Plone domain we have around 60 new
messages and about 30 removals. The other files have seen no changes.

I also did one major update that was one my list for some time: We use
certain HTML entites like — (a longer dash) and … (a
horizontal ellipsis) in the Plone templates. So far these have been
replaced by a simple dash and three dots in the translation templates,
in order for you not having to handle any of those entities. As a
general rule we try to avoid any HTML as much as possible in the
translation files.

Starting today instead of substituting these entities with simple
characters we use proper Unicode characters which preserve the special
meaning of these two entities:

— is now — instead of -
… is now … instead of ...

This update has set another 60 messages in your translation to fuzzy
status. You can simply review those by searching for the above two
characters and decide if you want to keep the simple ASCII characters or
use the proper Unicode symbols. Simply delete the #, fuzzy line for
those where you want to keep the old translation.

This change also forced me to update some files to use an UTF-8 encoding
instead of some variants of ISO-8859-* as the above characters have no
representation in those encodings.

If you have any questions about this, please don't hesitate to ask.

Hanno

Hey Michael,

they're in the standard place:

https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/PloneTranslations/trunk/i18n

Take a look in the translators' guidelines:

Missing role names [Re: Major Plone translations update]

Hi

This seems to come from some previous update: only a few minutes ago I
noticed that there are no entries in the .po files for the new role
names (Editor, Contributor, Reader)... but then I also noticed I could
not find previous existing entries for classic roles (Manager, Member,
Owner, Reviewer).

Best regards

Do we actually use the role names anywhere in the UI? On the sharing
page we have the 'Can edit', 'Can view', ... messages which are in the
.po files.

If these names show up anywhere in the UI, they should also be
translatable :)

Yes, at least while visiting .../prefs_users_overview [Site Setup ->
Users and Groups]:  the user listings one gets after a search or "Show
all" include role selection fields with the corresponding role names at
the top of the table.

Hello,
you also add a kupu subdirectory within two new pot files.
If you try to update with 'msgmerge -U kupupox-fr.po kupupox.pot' you
would get an error cause by \' but needed in javascript code.

What's the method to update these po files ?

Regards,
