[wp-polyglots] Dutch translation mergin of trunk translation with development

Thanks for your answers Milan and José! How could I’ve missed that? :0

 

One question though.. whenever I upload a new .pos file will this override all current translations for a given field? Or does everything get wiped clean? In some cases translation have been made for certain fields in the 3.0.x branch which have not been translated in the development trunk.

For now, you need to export translations from trunk and import them in 3.0.x. There is a ticket ( http://trac.glotpress.org/ticket/66 ) in GlotPress for enabling copying between two translations sets which would make this process easier.

Hi, it's me again :)

I have requested a chat with somebody in charge of the GlotPress
translations a few weeks back but I have gotten no response yet... Right now
the main issue is that we would like to merge the translation of the
development trunk with 3.0.x branch. Most of the translations have been done
in the development area and it just seems like a huge waste of time to have
to that for the 3.0.x branch as well..

If there is a way I can do this myself that would be great but I don't see
it :(

Thanks,
Remkus

Sorry.. read through the revision statements - it seems we should use 15480.
I'll go with that.

nope. that didn't work...

These are the settings I use:
- Where to take translations from: translate.wordpress.org
- Locale branch for dist-files: tags/3.0.1
- Project: Development (trunk)
- WordPress revision: HEAD (15480)
- WordPress version: 3.0.1

When these settings are used, version.php says 3.1-alpha...

Don't use trunk, use the 3.0.1 tag, or at least the 3.0 branch.

-x.

 Well written Milan, I totally agree with you. This has been discussed a
couple of times over the years but nothing has really changed.
