Title: Bitsharesblocks Translations: 10 bitUSD + 500 BTS per language
Post by: svk on November 24, 2014, 10:06:13 pm
I've recently added a translation framework to Bitsharesblocks, and as a result I need some more translations!

I'm offering a bounty of 10 bitUSD + 500 BTS per major language translation. The ones I'd like to have are:
I've created a github repo just for this, in it you'll find the locale_en.json file that needs to be translated.

https://github.com/svk31/bitsharesblocks

Simply make a pull request with your translated file: locale-es.json for Spanish, locale-zh for Chinese, locale-de.json for Germany or locale-ru.json for Russian. Include the account to which you want the bounty sent in your pull request and I'll send it right over.

If you really don't want to use github, you can simply download the file from there and then e-mail your translation to bitsharesblocks@gmail.com

Awesome.

I'm considering adding some languages, Portuguese and Indonesian for example are two major languages that could be useful. I do have a few visits from Indonesia and Brazil, and the Philippines are actually in the top 20, ahead of Holland. They speak English there though unless I'm mistaken?

Here's an overview of the countries that have users visiting bitsharesblocks.com:

I will indeed, thank you. I'll send you some BTS for your trouble too, even if Turkish wasn't on the list for the bounties!

Status update: So far I have Chinese, Turkish, German and Korean translations. I've been unable to implement the Korean translation however, I've tried changing the font to fonts that explicitly support Korean but the symbols still show up all garbled. If anyone has any experience using Korean fonts on the web I'd be happy to get some advice.

I'm still looking for Spanish and Russian translations if anyone's interested!

My wife can do translations to Greek if needed as long as we pay her. She is bilingual in Greek and English and unemployed. So she has the knowledge and the time for this and that woman doesn't do anything for free  :)...

Since neither of us are tech savy and have no idea how github works, please PM me with the English texts that need translation and offering price so I can forward same to her.

Sent you a mail with the file. It will be nice if someone also can check the translation and I will do a recheck once its online, because I may missed some contextual stuff.

After the update to v.0.4.25-RC1 I can't see the translation anymore.

Is it possible to have a menu where to choose the language?
