I would like to start a translation to the german language - I contacted the project maintainer about a *.pot file a while ago - however not got around to start, because there are quite a lot of strings. Maybe we could work together somehow?

I noticed two days ago that someone started w/ this..obviously the update mechanism does not import language files. Anyway I got this po file from cvs and updated it further. Still a lot of strings missing though. Also I am not sure what the "[fuzzy]" text is all about and I fixed two situations where poedit would complain that there was a newline in the translation while in the original string it was not.

Thanks Niels,

I've committed your changes... http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=320736

I'm not sure what you mean by "obviously the update mechanism does not import language files" the most recent files should be included with the distribution you downloaded from the project page.

Ron.

Right Ron, but if one changes or adds a translation and you update your module then there is no way of telling hook_update* that you made a change. Therefore you might miss it.

Also I am wondering: How do you translate the base-url and the base-title?

I see what you are getting at now, I think if I was to add a call to this function http://api.drupal.org/api/function/locale_batch_by_component/6 in the update, then any updated translations would be imported.

WRT base-url and the base-title, since they are variables you would just put what ever you want in the appropriate input boxes on the admin/settings/biblio page.

Just a quick update to this: still working on the translation. If you'd like to help: Feel welcome.

But for the base-title: One can add

$conf['i18n_variables'] = array(
'biblio_base_title',
);

to settings.php in order to translate it. Maybe this could be added to the documentation somewhere?

I don't know about the paths though - I guess biblio would need to provide an interface to pathauto in order to do this.

This is the full translation for German. However during translation I noticed that some strings are split up in a strange way and that the t-function isn't always provided correctly. I will provide a patch and a further translation for that too ... in a while :-)

8 Strings are flagged for being unclear in this version. Comments and further improvements welcome.

Attached:
A further improved version of the po-file (yes I already found a mistake) and a patch that improves two longer strings imho.

The translation is complete - and works w/ both the patched and the non-patched version.

Thanks Niels,

I've committed (http://drupal.org/cvs?commit=361176) the po file and the patch changes are pending.

Ron.
