Antville Project

FYI: antville-update

today i merged in the changes made in the branch grob_messages into the main trunk in CVS. please give it a try (but remember: this is still part of code-refacturing and therefore should be considered beta!) and report any bugs or suspicious behaviours.

languages

great, so we could start requesting for contributions of message translations, couldn't we?

yes!

this would be a great thing to ask for prominently on the antville home page!

but wait

i'd like to brush up some of the english messages before we publish them as list for contributors... imho, i think some of the sentences don't give the required feedback to you (e.g. "Should the story appear online or not?" is not instructive, "This was definetly no image!" has a typo and sounds a little bit arrogant etc.)

would you mind me doing that? (same for the german translations.)

right.

I thought about brushing up the english messages anyway, but I forgot that we should do that before giving them to others to translate. "This was definitely no image" is a special friend of mine, since I got it when I tried to upload an image in an unsupported format, which non the less was an image.

I guess we should ask for both brushing up of existing language versions and new languages, and see that the translators of new versions get notified of the updated reference version each time it changes.

I think it's a good idea if you go over the existing english and german versions to make them say what they should say, and than hand the english version to a native speaker to smooth it out stylistically.
