Awesome! So can you add it to the packages list?

Also could you translate the part of the article that mentions autopackage? It doesn't *seem* to be a Linux site ... On Sun, 2005-10-02 at 13:59 +0100, Mike Hearn wrote: > Awesome!

Hi list. Me and Mike had a discussion yesterday about removing the translations for the developer tools (makeinstaller and (un)setup). The reason is obviously to reduce the number of strings to translate, which in my copy of HEAD is around 300(!) now for core+gtkfe. By removing those strings, the numbers would decrease with about 50-60 strings. The argument for removing them is that developers are supposed to know English good enough to understand those messages. Also, we don't have translations of the API docs and tutorials so we already implicitly demand English knowledge of our packagers. So, are there any objections to me removing the i18n support for those tools? I'd specifically like to hear arguments from people who don't speak English as first language. Thanks, Isak Savo PS. Many of those strings are already translated by the translations in the stable branch, so removing them only affect new translations and if we add/change messages in the dev tools. Let's consider an eventual removal an "investment for the future"(Continue reading)--------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: autopackage-dev-unsubscribe@...

I can't translate it, but I did find this: http://www.pvcf.nl/easytax/linux.html http://www.pvcf.nl/easytax/source/ib2005-1.0.x86.package -- Taj http://www.wildgardenseed.com/Taj/blog Need a GMail invite?

You might wanna try babelfish, although the translation was so crappy that it was hardly readable: http://babelfish.altavista.com/ I really like this sentence: "To keep the nuisance minimum the installation programme car package is used."

The article isn't that important. Here's a rough summary: Many problems with Linux-beta tax office The new software for registering taxes for 2005 is already available on the Internet. There are criticisms. A test version of the tax software EasyTax has appeared. There are criticims and questions on the forums. There are some problems with installing the software on some Linux-distributions. For minimal hassle, autopackage was used. Users can get the software working after some tweaking, but it's not end-user friendly. (bla bla insert other bad things here) It's a bit of sensationalism. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: autopackage-dev-unsubscribe@...

It'd be interesting to know what kind of problems those are... BTW, at the company i work for, we work on the Brazilian tax software, and i've been thinking too about suggesting AP for delivery of the Linux version. But i must confess sometimes i think AP still isn't as stable as it needs to be to propose a AP-only Linux version :/ Cheers, J.V. 2005/10/2, Hongli Lai <hongli@...>: > Mike Hearn wrote: > > Also could you translate the part of the article that mentions > > autopackage?

Hopefully they'll report back to us what any issues are. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: autopackage-dev-unsubscribe@...
