View source for Translating/www.laptop.org

Translating the 'static' site of the OLPC ([http://www.laptop.org www.laptop.org] to your language is quite a task, involving a series of things to note, do, and update. Hopefuly this page will clarify what those things are (besides documenting them).

== Structure ==

We are currently using this wiki as the content manager for the [[:Category:PO files]] and the specifics for the [[:Category:laptop.org]] static site.  Currently the following languages have been targeted: {{:PO-laptop.org-en-US/translations}}.

The originals can be found/seen in [[PO-laptop.org-en-US]] and they are: 
{| border=1 cellspacing=0
|-
! Top level !! translations
|-
| [[PO-laptop.org-top-level-en-US]]; || align=left | {{:PO-laptop.org-top-level-en-US/translations}}
|-
! Secondary level !! translations
|-
| [[PO-laptop.org-vision-en-US]], || align=left | {{:PO-laptop.org-vision-en-US/translations}}
|-
| [[PO-laptop.org-laptop-en-US]], || align=left | {{:PO-laptop.org-laptop-en-US/translations}}
|-
| [[PO-laptop.org-foundation-en-US]], and || align=left | {{:PO-laptop.org-foundation-en-US/translations}}
|-
| [[PO-laptop.org-children-en-US]], || align=left | {{:PO-laptop.org-children-en-US/translations}}
|-
! Auxiliary level !! translations
|-
| [[PO-laptop.org-auxiliary-en-US]], and || align=left | {{:PO-laptop.org-auxiliary-en-US/translations}}
|-
| [[PO-laptop.org-bio-en-US]]. || align=left | {{:PO-laptop.org-bio-en-US/translations}}
|}

== Back pointers ==

There are some links in the 'static' site that point to non-PO content, some of which is in this wiki.  For example, <tt>msgid "languagesp1"</tt> points back to http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Localization/www.laptop.org (or locally: [[Localization/www.laptop.org]]). Here's a list of those links:
