Re: Should translators change source strings?

How about putting changes through key people, who have the skills and are willing to do it? Why not have a file in the PO directory with a list of pending changes? Then the translator who finds a bug simply adds it to that file, and those who are capable of changing the source and the PO files can pick up a set of bugs in one swoop...

Gnome documentation
Hello During the last days I have been translating documentation, but it seems some applet docs are still talking about the old "Add applet though menu" interface (as I can see for example in Clock applet). I'll propose to take note of this things and fix them now, but I'm afraid there is too much workload with documentation and maybe doing it now is not a good idea. Maybe we could improve this thigs on a Gnome Documetation Party after releasing. What do you think guys? ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
