1. The underscore used to underline the followed character, Where i should put this character '_'? 2. What about the Slash..I find it in the translation itself not the originial script.. Shall i remove it or does it mean anything.. 3. Sometimes i don't know if this word is noun or verb; it could be informative message or window label or action needed from the user..For Example: Create, modify, and delete samba shares = أنشء، عدّل، واحذف مُشاركات سامبا Create, modify, and delete samba shares = إنشاء، تعديل، وحذف مُشاركات سامبا not clear enough to me :) Add a Samba share = أضف مُشاركة سامبا oR[ Samba أضف مشاركة جديدة تحت خادم ] _Add Share = /_ملف/إ_ضافة مُشاركة [why the translation looks like that, shall i change it to إضافة مشاركة] No guest account = guest لا يوجد حساب لمستخدم [did not transilitate the word guest] Visible = مرىء [or مشاركة مرئية] Visibility = رؤية [Not enough to say vision; مدى رؤية المشاركة yuk!! any better suggestion] O_nly allow access to specific users = اسمح بالوصول _فقط لمستخدمين محدّدين or it better to change it to مسموح فقط للمستخدمين المحددين

Do we have any Web Developers within?
by Sherif Abdelgawad 26 Sep '05

$SUBJECT I have noticed that we have a lot of ppl here. Some of them shy to speak. A lot with no experience with CVS and Linux at all. Yet, they would joined the mailing list. I was thinking for a way to get the shy people to participate in more effective way without trying to educate them how to use CVS, and/or educate them how to use Linux. So here is what I am thinking about. CVS Mirror to match what is on Red Hat translation servers. That will give us: - Control over our members - Update our Keys - Better, and faster management - Central update process Now to my next idea as we gonna have our own CVS, and files available to us on filesystem where the web interface has access to it. I was wondering if we can develop something that parse all the CVS files, give template form that allow ppl who has no experience to just fill in a form and submit this translation. The point here is: - Need PHP to parse and format the forms - PHP submit the changes to MySQL DB, waiting for Maintainer approval - Maintainer check the translation and click approve, hence the updates goes to the PO files on the file system, and trigger a CVS sync to Red Hat Server. So the question is: Do we have any PHP/MySQL developer here who can try to accomplish the above? Thanks Sherif

Java application to help translation
by Sherif Abdelgawad 19 Sep '05

I thought of bringing this to a broader audience. I suggested to my team (Arabic translation team) while ago to have some sort of web interface to help non-technical ppl to contribute translation. The idea was: - Application that parse CVS po files - Store the strings, headers, and translation into DB - 3 interfaces: o Contributor - where an authenticated user can view untranslated and fuzzy strings and contribute translation from his browser. o Maintainer - Approve translation and merge new translation, QA, ..etc. o Admin - Populate DB with the PO files, generate PO files and check them back to CVS where it can be later sync'd to Fedora CVS. Mohamed Ghoniem and Maha Helwa from the Arabic team volunteered to contribute a Java code. The work still going and we only got a parser for the PO files but we wish to have full featured java application in the near future. To check the current first initial code: http://www.arabic-fedora.org/po2db.tar.gz This code takes care of all PO components. It handles strings correctly in UTF-8 charset, it works fine with Arabic, and it should handle anyother charset and/or all languages supported by java. We thought to bring this to a broader audience and other teams as we think this can be of a great help to all the translation effort. Also there maybe other ideas that we can share. Thanks Sherif
