I'm sorry to hear that. I think it would have been a perfect match for the GNOME-based projects to be translated there. I'm currently updating this issue to track current thinking, and you are most welcome to comment there if you want: https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/OS-issues/issues/62
As for me, I would be in favor of hosting translations for the modules you suggested. We could dedicate a specific release set on D-L (a bit like we did for GIMP).
That would be great!
2. Would it be technically possible to do so while they are still hosted at Purism or would they need to migrated to GNOME's GitLab instance?Yes, it is possible to let them on Purism Git repository. However, if you want language coordinators be able to commit translations through the Web interface, you'll have to authorize a specific user (named translations on gitlab.gnome.org) to commit to your modules.
OK. I'll have to talk to my colleagues about how to do that, if/when we go ahead. [...]
I'm not yet decided about forked modules. Ideally, if you could provide .po templates with only differing strings, it would be the best, but then you would have to setup a toolchain to extract and reinject those strings in the forked modules. Let's see now what other leaders on this list think about your request.
Thanks for your response. I'll direct my colleagues to this discussion so that they can comment directly or indirectly via me. Regards, David -- David Boddie Documentation Engineer Purism SPC
