Hi! As everyone says: congratulations!
As for wishes and whistles... well, first of all what's your aim with the rewriting? Just do a 1 to 1 match with what currently Gtranslator does? As a GSoC is just a summer I would say that instead of adding all features that we are telling you, provide a really solid base that can be improved later on, so libpeas and a completely dockable UI should be top priority for me. Also on that base I will say that a great system for consistency checking (also pluggable too) would be great: not only checking that msgfmt -vc passes but also that tags are correct and match and so. On top of that: - translation memory and glossary support (for both local and online) - project overview (or being able to work with more than one file) I hope you take your time to analyze what we replied and come up with a plan for it :) Cheers, Gil 2013/6/4 Nicolas Delvaux <cont...@nicolas-delvaux.org> > ** > > Hi and congratulation for being accepted! > > I almost mentored a GSoC related to translation tools this year, but the > student applied to another project too and he decided to go for the other > in the end. > The idea was to develop a web-app which would have provided an API for > translation validation and previewing. > > The "previewing" part could be useful for Gtranslator too. > You may want to provide integration with an existing web-service like > Deckard[1] (which could be extended to suit your needs) or you could > implement a similar feature directly in Gtranslator (this means downloading > the right assets automatically from git). > > Feel free to ask if you have any question. > > Cheers, > Nicolas > > [1] https://launchpad.net/deckard > > > > Le 2013-06-03 20:31, Marcos Chavarría Teijeiro a écrit : > > Hello everybody! > > Last month I apply to Google Summer of Code with a project about > redesigning and rewriting Gtranslator in Vala.
