><i> Well, it doesn't matter if the translations are in a separate
</I>><i> repository or not and I'm not sure, what it woudl mean for the devs,
</I>><i> to separate them.
</I>><i> The problem with tx is - or at least was - the manual work involved
</I>><i> upon string changes.
</I>><i>
</I>><i> As an example:
</I>><i> When uploading a file into tx, it parses that file and adds the
</I>><i> strings into the database. When the string changes in the original pot
</I>><i> (even it's only a typo), and you reupload the pot file, tx will parse
</I>><i> it and see a new string and one string missing and it will act
</I>><i> accordingly:
</I>><i> It will remove the translations for the old string from its database
</I>><i> and it will add the new untranslated string, since it can not know,
</I>><i> that this was only a string change.
</I>><i> So the task for us (mostly me) was:
</I>><i> - Tell you not to touch certain translation resources in a certain time
</I>><i> span
</I>><i> - Download all files from this resource from tx
</I>><i> - merge them manually with the changed po files (it couldn't be
</I>><i> automated, since TX also had problems fuzzying strings correctly)
</I>><i> - reupload all files to tx and tell you to check
</I>><i>
</I>><i> I would rather have a solution without the need to do so....
</I>><i>
</I>><i> Cheers,
</I>><i>

</I>Hi again. I think most of the problems you mentioned are past day problems.
-Tx can be locked for certain resources to not accept new translations.
See: <A HREF="https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/chakra-project/language/tr/">https://www.transifex.com/projects/p/chakra-project/language/tr/</A>
Resources wtih red dot mark locked.
- As i mentioned earlier even a bash script can automate pulling from tx
process on server side. İs it so hard to do? I really do not know...
- Merging should be done in tx. Say, use hourly cron job to pull from and
push to tx. Than tx should care of translations and resources merging?
- As i mentioned earlier again, i can tell tx can automatically pull
resources and transations from svn from what i read.
- Tx do not mess up translator information anymore. It has been fixed as i
know.
- For the fuzzy strings, tx still adds them into database as suggestions
and every tx translator can see and if possible use them in online
translation.
My 2 cents.
