Hi Mario,<br><br>It would be great if you could simplify the localization process. I personally was quite enthusiastic about the Launchpad idea but it is difficult to fit everything into my spare time and it is something I have never used before. I am not sure how it would have integrated with the current architecture.<br>
<br>I sometimes struggle when advising translators because foreign text is not an area I am very experienced in and it does require one or two tools that are not commonly used e.g. TextPad. A few weeks ago I was trying to remotely assist one helpful translator to use TextPad to edit an xml file but it became so difficult that I think in the end he gave up.<br>
<br>I am up for anything you recommend if it simplifies translation!<br><br>Thanks<br>Martin<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 25 March 2011 19:41, Mario Bertrand <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:mario.bertrand@gmail.com">mario.bertrand@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<p>I already have proposed a Launchpad integration, but with not much positive feedback. Launchpad is using gnu gettext .pot template and .po translation files. Need some additional tools like xml2po to convert from and back to xml.</p>
<p>I also found this site which offer free service to opensource project: <a href="http://amanuens.com" target="_blank">http://amanuens.com</a></p>
<p>You can work directly on android xml files.</p>
<p>Maybe worth giving a try. No need for file conversion. You can auto sync, import and commit translation directly to code.google account via svn.</p>
<p>Take a look at it and give me some feedback. I have some spare time next week if you want me to take care of this and do the follow-up after.</p>
