We're coming up on the 2.0 launch of the PortableApps.com Platform and we again find ourselves in need of translators to get things up to speed. We have a full set of locales ready to be updated available in this forum post along with instructions on how to do update the translation. There are 49 languages, some have been updated for all but the latest strings. Some are in need of a great many translations, so all work is appreciated.

Thanks in advance for helping make this the best release yet!

What about adding a translation Wiki. I have seen these a couple times before (but for the life of me cannot remember where). The concept was great where anyone could create an account and have an easy interface to contribute a translation. Without the need for going through source files etc.

Just a thought Smile

EDIT: I just found one of the places I had seen this before.

And the Translation Wiki linked to above is powered by MediaWiki http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki

It amazes me that on the internet you can be anything you want, and yet so many people still choose to be idiots.

There is a collection of Free and Open Source (FOSS or FLOSS) software tools that support translation and localization of software and content at http://socialsourcecommons.org/toolbox/show/1107

I think that Launchpad Translations could be used - https://launchpad.net/rosetta - and there is very easy to see the translations in many languages. As an example, see the translations for the tools used by the LinuxMint operating system: https://translations.launchpad.net/linuxmint/helena
