561532 - Add Support to Verbatim

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Webtools Graveyard :: Verbatim, defect)

Description

[James Socol [:jsocol, :james]]

Apologies if this is the wrong product/component for this bug. I couldn't find anything more relevant.

We've got gettext .po files up in SVN at /projects/sumo/locales, and with bug 560955, the verbatim SVN account has r/w access to that directory.

I filled in the directory by taking the strings extracted from the 2.x version of our app, using msgen to generate en_US/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po, then used msginit to create the rest of the locales.

Let me know what else I have to do before we can get SUMO up on Verbatim. If it's nothing, well, that's just great!

Hi James,

I added SUMO to Verbatim, but I think you really want to have messages.po empty for non-translated strings.
Having duplicated ID's as values kind of kills the purpose of using Verbatim overall :)

also, if you're going to be the person to maintain SUMO localizations, I'll be happy to grant you admin privs on the project.

Hey Gandalf, thanks!

I will be the person maintaining them.

So, like I said, I used msginit to create all the locales from English. Was that wrong? Is there a better tool to just copy they keys?

James: could you move the .pot file to ./templates/LC_MESSAGES/ ? That would make it easy to maintain it for Verbatim.

Thanks!

I'll update the local copy then and we should be good to go :)
