This is the final call for all translators. If you wish to have OpenLP
|
|
|
|
|
in your langauge you need to have completed the translation of
|
2015-08-08 21:03:55 +00:00
|
|
|
`OpenLP <https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/openlp/>`_ on the
|
|
|
|
|
`Transifex <https://www.transifex.com/>`_ site ***by midnight UTC (GMT)
|
2015-08-06 20:19:50 +00:00
|
|
|
on Friday the 23rd of November 2012***.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because we believe strongly in quality over quantity at OpenLP, we will
|
|
|
|
|
not be including any translations that are incomplete into the final
|
|
|
|
|
build. **This means that if you want your language to be part of the
|
|
|
|
|
final release of version 2.0, you need to make sure it is 100% done by
|
|
|
|
|
the end of Friday the 23rd**. This deadline also gives you just over a
|
|
|
|
|
week to complete any outstanding translations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Currently, the following translations are more than 85% complete, but
|
|
|
|
|
still need some work (ordered from most complete to least complete). My
|
|
|
|
|
estimate is that none of these should take longer than an hour to
|
|
|
|
|
complete.

The following translations are between 20% and 65% complete. Unless
|
|
|
|
|
these are worked on this week, they probably won't make it into the
|
|
|
|
|
final release of OpenLP.

Lastly, the following translations are less than 10% complete. If any of
|
|
|
|
|
these translations makes it into the final release, I will be very
|
|
|
|
|
surprised. These translations seem to have been abandoned by their
|
|
|
|
|
translators.
