Re: Res: [epf-dev] Guideline: Translating Method and Process Content

[Ricardo Balduino <balduino@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi (Oi) Paulo,

Great initiative to look for tools that
can automate this translation process. I never used these tools you mentioned,
do you know if they can run on HTML files as well? The reason I'm asking,
besides the reasons pointed out in the guideline referred below, xmi files
may be harder to read, translate and merge than HTML files. The HTML can
have markers that tell which areas you can translate, which you can not,
so you don't erase/change metadata information.

But by all means, the community/contributors
may come up with the strategy they feel most comfortable with, so again,
great idea and keep the ball rolling in creating a Brazilian community
for translating EPF content. Ah, by the way, there are people in Portugal
interested in translating content as well :-)

And please let me know if you create
a Yahoo group for that matter. I'd be more than willing to join it.

Cheers / Saudações

Subject	Res: [epf-dev] Guideline: Translating Method and Process Content

Oi Amigos,
 
I was thinking about some tasks we can do
to start the job.
 
1 - Create a Portuguese mail lists in Yahoo
groups to translators discuss terminology issues (Who can do it ?)
 
2 - Find tools to help us to translate the
contents.
I made some tests with an open source translation
memory tool called OmegaT http://www.omegat.org/omegat/omegat.html,
and translated xmi 
files directly. To detect the changes in
the baselined library we can use WinMerge http://www.winmerge.org
 
3 - If we'll be able to translate the xmi
files directly, we have to map those files and assign then to collaborators.
 
Everybody is welcome to join the discussion,
 
Cheers,
 
Paulo Moreira

Assunto: [epf-dev] Guideline: Translating Method and Process Content


As promised, here's a draft of a guideline on how to translate content
under the EPF project. 
There have been various offers for translation of content, and we've been
in need of some guidance to allow this effort to start and run smoothly.

In this draft, there are some recommendations on how we could proceed,
and what is the infrastructure needed for the translation effort.

I'd like to primarily encourage committers to provide feedback and discuss
some areas that are still open in the guideline. Community is free to join
the discussion. 
Please provide feedback as comments/attachment on the appropriate Bugzilla
entry: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=176053.

The file is also attached here for your convenience.



Thank you,
