UB is now helping out with translations for the DesktopFolder project. So if you want an easy way to get involved with a great open-source project, how about helping with translations?

I’ve noticed that Italian translation is only 95% done, so if needed I can help.

And … once (when last LTE was Precise) there was also a (poor, to be honest) latin UI; what about translating Budgie in latin too?

Wonderful if you can look after the italian translation regularly. There will be a few updates over the next few weeks leading up to 19.04 - so would be great to find dedicated people to regularly check.

To be honest - I have no knowledge of anyone wanting budgie in latin - but if you want to maintain that language then that I am sure would be very nice to those latin readers out there.

Thanks, I’ll take a look tomorrow as soon as I’ll be at work (here is 5-and-something pm and I’m here from 8am so I’m about ready to run home as fast as I can).

About latin: there was a translators’ group for Ubuntu but nowadays they’ve left, I fear (no more latin Ubuntu since 12.04); I’ll think about very careffully 😉 because a nice 20 years pack has flow since I studied latin (same thing for ancient greek) at school 😁

Some languages already have very active translators - so as soon as something needs doing, it gets done very fast. Others just a one or two translators so it can take weeks or months for updates to happen ☹

Hi, the very first post has the transifex link.

Basically you need to set up an account, pick your language and then you can begin translating.
