NonLanguagePackTranslationDeadline
Revision 8 as of 2008-08-12 10:16:53
Clear message
Some translation data cannot currently be updated via the language pack mechanism. Because these items require more disruptive integration work, they are subject to an earlier deadline. Translations which fall into this category are:
- The Ubuntu installer
- Translations which don't use gettext, including:
debconf templates
desktop notifications via notification-daemon
Package description translations. Please by default translate in Debian, and only fill in the missing pieces in Ubuntu's DDTP
- Ubuntu documentation (ubuntu-docs, kubuntu-docs, xubuntu-docs, edubuntu-docs)
- Strings visible in the default desktop (live CDs don't get language pack updates)
- Default menu items
- Panel strings
- All menu entries in KDE applications, which does not support translation via language packs
