I guess is my turn to contribute to this thread. During the GUADEC-ES in Granada we (some members of the Spanish GTP) met one responsible of Extremadura's regional government (Linex department [1]) who is in contact with the people from Guadalinex [2] and also with Mark Shuttleworth (they're clients of Canonical).
Some years ago, the Spanish GTP asked for a translation tool, and since some regions of Spain were (and are) using our software and translations in their machines (a lot, 1 per 2 students in every single school) it would be nice and cool if they could provide it. Those conversations ended up in nothing. In Granada we talked about a serious proposal of it. The idea is to crete a new tool, to update GTranslator properly (there is a guy, from Galicia, doing his final proyect improving GTranslator) or a plugin for Gedit. The requirements we sent to the regional governments and what is going to arrive to Mark is something like this: * Kbabel style panes * The application should be able to download a file (svn/rosetta) * The application should have a glossary divided into categories * The application should have a dictionary * The application should use translation memories (from rosetta and imported from our own local files) * The application should be able to suggest strings * The application should show a visual diff (meld like) * The application should render a po into XML when a manual is being translated There was also mention that it should approve translations from users (rosetta) or something like that, so if DL improves a user system or something like that, it would be woth to tell them about it. We didn't mention GTK+ explicit but we all are GNOME fans so we guess it will be the platform chosen. This is just the first step to get a new tool or an improved one for us, I guess with what have been said before and this we have a lot to talk about. So, wouldn't be nice something like that?
