Re: [Geany-i18n] I18n Digest, Vol 75, Issue 2
by André Glória 17 Jan '16

Hello, I just want to give you my 2 cents on this discussion. I agree with you, proper names should never be translated. And those examples are quite good, Geany, MS Word, LibreOffice, etc. In this plugin's particular case I would never translated "Bird's Eye" but I would say that since it is called "Overview" it should. My reasoning is the following, the former name does not really imply the plugin's functionality while the latter is more of its function/action than its name. And if you look at other Geany's plugins I would say that this is their main idea also, GeanyPy is a name but "Split Window" is a function/action. Ultimately you have to assume that the translation is made to help people that have zero knowledge on the original's program language, and therefore the more you translate the better. While translating a name like "Geany "does not give you any benefits (imho), translating a function/action does. Off course you could argue that at least in Geany's case the plugins are presented on a list with a succinct description right under their name which could make translating their "name" irrelevant. I would agree with such argument but I would still stand by the fact that if the plugin's name is more of its function/action than a name per se it still brings more value to translated than not.

Incorrect russian translation of overview plugin
by Yan Pashkovsky 16 Jan '16

16 Jan '16

High everybody! Overview plugin in russian l18n should be translated to "Обзор Документа" or like in Notepad++ "Карта документа" (document map). Currently it means eclipse, which is weird Kind regards, Yan

Geany localization
by Baadur Jobava 11 Nov '15

11 Nov '15

Hello, I can't find anywhere information about the process used for localizing Geany. Can you tell me something about that? Also, if you have a rough outline of future releases and possible deadlines. I am interested in taking a look at the Romanian localization, but can't make firm promises in that regard just yet.

String freeze for Geany 1.26 -- Please translate!
by Frank Lanitz 05 Nov '15

05 Nov '15

Hi translators and friends of Geany, As by our new release cycle I'm happy to announce the first kind of regular string freeze. We now have to get the best translations for our users in place! In preparation of that I've update po-files for Geany core project inside github repositories and asking you whether you could update translations, review them or maybe add new languages. Why not having a Klingonion one? ;) I'd be very happy if you could send a patch, a pull request or single file with translation to either the geany-i18n mailing list or direct to me within the next two weeks so we can include it to the next release. Deadline will be 2015-11-14 CET. To get most recent files you could just clone the repositories from Geany: https://github.com/geany/geany This can be done e.g. with git clone https://github.com/geany/geany.git Also at http://i18n.geany.org or are statistics and daily updated files available -- the push of tonight will be there tomorrow CET. If your language was translated by two or more in past, please double check directly with them or by pinging me, so we don't need to translate same things two or three times. Also please feel to ping me for every question or if you like to start a new translation for an unsupported language. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ping me directly via IRC: geany @freenode Jabber/XMPP: frlan(a)jabber.ccc.de or via Mail: look above or some of the mailing lists. Thanks and happy translating Frank

Geany-Plugins website down because of issue at sf
by Frank Lanitz 22 Jul '15

22 Jul '15

Hi folks, As on different channels people are getting nervous: SF had some major issues with the storage. They are currently in recovering mode. Until they finished, plugins.geany.org will not be available -- at least I hope so it will be back later. Proactive information from sf was not given so I only have the information from Twitter¹ and related pages We might will need to switch also plugin pages to our infrastructure later. Our github-Repos are not effected by this as well as geany.org is fine. Cheers, Frank ¹ https://twitter.com/sfnet_ops
