Here's a report of trying to document the ups & downs of installing Pootle.
Proving Grounds
We are currently testing ad-hoc trial (config)
Observations
- Casual translators may only 'suggest' translation
- You can download the PO, so there's no forcing of the on-line UI.
- In the translation interface, fuzzy entries are grayed out and there's a gray vertical line separating the terms
To Do
Usage
- Define goals
- Explore the 'suggest' function & review process
- File maintenance: rename, delete files? How is it done? (ie: uploaded a file with a name that has no POT should not be valid—but I've done it—so if it was a mistake, how do you undo it?)
Config
- Interface with GIT — both on importing POTs & POs from it & exporting POs back to it.
- Verify the registration via email
Glitches
- Something related to encodings was wrong during the setup
- Alfonso commented several language specs that apparently were iso8859 instead of UTF ??
- Haven't found the way to read / load the .POT files using git
- User permits seem a bit awkward (per user, no groups except for 'nobody' & 'default')
