From: Jonas Häggqvist <rasher_at_rasher.dk>
Date: Thu, 18 Dec 2008 21:33:20 +0100 With a Rockbox release around the corner, now is the time to jump in and help where you can. As the translation maintainer, I'll focus on this angle. One of the ways in which you can help out Rockbox without having to know programming is to translate Rockbox. The easiest way to do this is to simply point your browser at http://rasher.dk/rockbox/translate/ click on the language you can translate to and follow the directions. Releasing Rockbox with good translations would be very nice, so pitch in where you can! Also check out errors in languages by clicking on the small exclamation-mark sign next to each language name. These will have to be fixed by manually editing the language file source. Currently, a good number of languages are quite good, but a lot are also in need of updates, some more than other - particularly bad are Afrikaans, Turkish, Slovenian, Arabic and Hindi. You are required to be a native speaker of the language, and you will have to submit the result to the Rockbox tracker (http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/) under your full name. See also http://www.rockbox.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/LangFiles for all the details about language files. After you've posted your updates, remember to keep an eye on the status page to see if any changes are made before the release. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask me, or on the mailing list.
