[Rhythmbox-devel] Translation through rosetta

["गौरव मिश्रा" <gauravtechie gmail com>]

Dear maintainer,

I am interested in translating your application Rythmbox into the
Hindi language , and have noticed you don't have an established
translation framework.

I've been translating other programs using Rosetta, an advanced
web-based translation portal which is being developed by Canonical
(Ubuntu Linux's parent company). Rosetta seems an advantageous choice
for small/medium Free Software projects like yours, as it allows you
to trivially avoid the legwork involved in making your application
available in as many languages as possible.

With Rosetta, you would just need to publish a ''translation
template'' -.pot file- via a webform when it best suits you (for
example, when your next version is feature complete). Once it is
published in Rosetta, it would be made available to a body of dozens
of Free Software enthusiasts who would be then able to translate it.
When you're ready to release your next version, you would request an
''export' of all the available translations, which you would get in a
tar.gz archive.

Rosetta is under development, and features are being added and
improved every week. It is and will always be free of charge. For me,
it would make translating your application very easy.

You can learn more about Rosetta in <http://launchpad.net/rosetta/>.

Thanks,
Gaurav Mishra
