Re: Using Git and separating translations into their own l10n-LL repository

[Gil Forcada <gforcada gnome org>]

Hi,

Actually a lot has changed:

- for advanced-translators the same workflow will be maintained.
- for plain translators a web interface to commit languages will be
provided.

So I think you fall in the second option and thus you will need to have
access to http://l10n.gnome.org to download updated po files (like you
can do right know), track its status (like as of January you can do
right now) and commit them in source repositories (like you will be able
to do in a not-so-distant-future, Claude said it has a beta working
version that does this, I'm right Claude?)

So, all in all, your workflow will be a lot improved since you will only
have to download and upload files from/to http://l10n.gnome.org :)

Hope I haven't said any lie!

Cheers,
