|Translate OpenLP|
**Update:** Instructions on how to test your translation out have been
added to the `bottom of this blog
post <http://openlp.org/en/blog/2012/11/15/last-call-translators#testing-translations>`__.
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
`OpenLP <https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/openlp/>`__ on the
`Transifex <https://www.transifex.com/>`__ site ***by midnight UTC (GMT)
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.
#. Afrikaans
#. Dutch
#. German
#. Hungarian
#. Japanese
#. Polish
#. Spanish
#. Greek
#. French
#. Danish
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.
#. Russian
#. Finnish
#. Slovak
#. Bulgarian
#. Italian
#. Chinese (Taiwan)
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.
#. Korean
#. Latvian
#. Romanian
#. Albanian
#. Chinese (China)
#. Korean (Korea)
#. Spanish (Chile)
