| <ul> |
| <li>Should include a translation form with each contribution</li> |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Quality of Translated Code</li> |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Goal: We have to have committers eventually verify the translations</li> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Perhaps have a status level for committers to verify code (i.e. eBay)</li> |
| <li>Voting? </li> |
| <li>Change sets showing people what has changed, verify</li> |
| <li>How do we mark incorrect Translations?</li> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Suggestion Pseudo Translation: Special tagging unique strings that are incorrect using index numbers</li> |
| </ul> |
| </ul> |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Translating the same strings for each language at one time</li> |
| </ul> |
| <ul> |
| <li>This will save time by doing it all at one time</li> |
| <ul> |
| <li>I.e. Eclipse.org can be done automatically and only once</li> |
| </ul> |
