Just to summarize for those of you, who were not with us in the beginning:

- It was decided to use a web plattform, that can be used with our mageia accounts

- At that time we opted for tx, because it "looked good"

- Tx always was a pain for me and akien because it does not have an svn integration, so we had to sync manually between the svn and the tx database

- At some time something broke inside the tx database, we were never quite sure, what it was but it resulted in having loads of untranslated strings in the po files although they were translated in tx

- When our servers were updated from Mdv2010.1 (which they were using in the beginning) to Mga1, something broke, misc (our then tx maintainer) who did try to solve it never found out, what it was, it must have been something with the underlying software (python, django, postgres, whatever)

So yes, we do need a web platform. It should be

- easy to use for those i18n people who are not fond of using svn

- easy to maintain for the i18n team leaders (meaning it SHOULD have an svn integration

- easy to maintain for our sysadmins

- give those people who prefer working directly with svn the freedom to do so

As I see it, tx.net can't do that, but if you show me I'm wrong, I'm glad to learn...

Cheers,

Oliver

Thank you. Did you read http://help.transifex.com/intro/one-dot-zero.html ? From that page, i understand that tx can pull directly from VCS. But it won't push back. Is it main problem? I didn't search for other problems, i think those won't be problem if we use tx.net instead of own installation.

I think a script can do svn push in tx. Add it to svn server as a cron job and it directly pull from tx and submit to svn. Is it so hard? I haven't look in Pootle. May be it worths than tx.
