Hi everyone.
With the upcoming Documentation String Freeze [1] upon us, we are now
entering the last stretch of the Wily Werewolf cycle and it goes without
saying how important it is to make one last effort.
Our last translating focus are the packages that are used by Xubuntu and
provide essential features to the Xubuntu experience [2].
With the translation of these packages, we'll manage to make the base
system immediately more usable for more people:
- *https://translations.launchpad.net/catfish-search
<https://translations.launchpad.net/catfish-search>*
- *https://translations.launchpad.net/lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings/
<https://translations.launchpad.net/lightdm-gtk-greeter-settings/>*
- *https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin/
<https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/xfce4-whiskermenu-plugin/>*
If you've never contributed a translation before and your native language
is not English but you have really good English skills and are comfortable
using software in English, you can make a huge contribution by helping to
translate the Xubuntu applications into your native language.
Again, and before you start translating, besides recommending everyone to
join the Ubuntu-translators mailing list [3] to keep up with notifications
about important translation template updates and to stay in touch with
other Ubuntu translators, *we strongly ask you to have a thorough read of
the Xubuntu Translation Guidelines [4] wiki page*, which outlines our
guidelines and conventions.
Cheers,
