After detecting some serious problems with Zanata, we have decided to move the translations of glabels-qt to another platform. During the last months, it happened twice that the web interface went down and came up again some days later (see [1]). This is very annoying for both translators and maintainers. Moreover, Zanata is unable to handle *.ts files properly. Such files will be converted internally to *.po files, and we get then translated *.po files back. Well, it is possible to convert them back to *.ts, but the file hierarchy needs also to be adjusted, which is more work than it's worth. So we have moved the translations to Transifex [2]. If someone of you is still willing to continue on translating Glabels, subscribe to Transifex please. The *.ts files imported from the old *.po files are available from the Github repo of Glabels-qt [3]. Due to the conversion all of the strings have been marked as »unfinished«, and such files only with fuzzy strings are not accepted by Transifex.
