Things we plan to do. Comments welcome.
- Documentation: Distinguish more clearly between gettext/xgettext,
the Translation Project for GNU packages, and the PO mode.
- Look at Christian Robottom Reis's manual:
http://www.async.com.br/~kiko/gettext.html
- KBabel:
http://i18n.kde.org/translation-howto/gui-specialized-apps.html
http://i18n.kde.org/tools/kbabel/
- Tool to help people to correct msgid strings:
1. Program to move msgstr contents to msgid contents,
2. Program to update the translations accordingly, much like msgmerge.
- Refer also to the GNOME translation project http://www.klid.dk/gnome/ ?
- Mention Qt linguist (part of Qt 3)
- Easier delivery of PO directory for maintainer! Add a target for incoming
PO files
- Qt 3.0 compatibility:
- .ts, .qph catalogs
- .qm binary catalogs
- Add logging to libintl, in order to catch each of these problems:
> - if the directory that was argument to bindtextdomain is usable
> - what catalogs are installed there
> - if the language , that is requested by LC_ALL or some other
> variable is really there ...
> - if program tries to translate some message, it doesn't really know
> if it really get translated ... And if requested more than
> one language , you have no way to realize into what
> language, it had been really translated !!!!!!!
- msgdiff
- automake integration: Add to "make dist" an invocation of
"intltool-update --maintain", parametrized through a few variables that
specify
- where to look for i18n files,
- which file types are to be considered by i18n,
- which files are explicitly not i18n (e.g. generated files like
src/po-gram-gen.c)
- AC_SUBST([CONFIG_STATUS_DEPENDENCIES], ['$(top_srcdir)/version.sh'])
- Generating sr@latin PO file automatically from sr.po.
- XLIFF support
- object-oriented locale datatype, similar to giulia/glocale
- automatic download at installation time of PO files that have been
provided by the translators after the official release.
- Conversion of compendia from/to TMX format.
- Support some of the conversions found in the translate-toolkit package, see
http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/nonpo
- Extend gettextize and autopoint so that they work with several PO file
directories. (2 votes)
- xgettext should have a simpler way to specify the --flags.
