So to rectify someone needs to look into log for finding the error. Standard translators have no access to this. In the case of Danish translation the 99 % seem to me to be calculated based on the .pot file(s) compared to the actual translated strings. When it came to the individual translations 100 % they seem to be translated based on strings in the .po file. To resolve the issue I had manually to manipulate the file merging with the .pot file. I checked though a few other languages and they had the right numbers of strings. >>> This way as it is working right now is time consuming for translators. > > I'm sorry but how is this time consuming?

But that must be because I'm bad in finding mistakes :(. I did what I should. Reported the error to this mailing list in the hope that someone would look behind the scenes for finding the error. Waited a few day's and then updated the file. There were zero reaction and investigation. However how much I would like to report the issue I cannot feed you with more information than what I already have done earlier and above. The comment above is also related to the #325 which is planned to be in milestone 9. Please have a look at it on transifex.net. To add the solution to milestone 8 shouldn't be a big issue. I have raised the issue also here on this list with a solution to no avail. "We are not going to hack on Transifex" was the reply. On the Xfce project we have several applications with no translatable string and they are still shown in the bottom for missing translation. My point is just that a translator most likely just want to have a reliable system without having to know how it is working. If you cannot have trust in the system and zero reaction for taking care of them I'm pretty sure that many will just give up. I'm starting to think this way myself. > > Cheers, /Per -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkrn7u4ACgkQ2y9v5yQlyH2tDwCfWJmhhQNdvHRowKAuVbASMHgq KoYAn3JkaEpkEPVKn9o0LUYvGVW3XjGA =vBBM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Xfce-i18n mailing list Xfce-i18n@xfce.org http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/xfce-i18n
